not sure if that helps..
I finished up the CFI Academy at American Flyers in Texas and just took my CFI/II checkrides last week. skillbridge was approved in February, and I'm starting this week. Interesting times with all the COVID-19, but still on my way. So anyone curious if the CFI route is possible under the DoD Skillbridge - it definitely is, and works.. biggest hurdle I've seen from others is getting it approved by your commander - which for me wasn't a problem.
Cheers
