This Week in Bridge is a large collection of quality short lessons/articles on all aspects of bridge bidding and play, maintained by well respected US bridge teacher and player, Robert Todd. The core lessons are divided into levels and include significant content suitable for intermediate and advanced players - though of course some of the ideas may be outside or beyond the bidding system the club teaches. The core lessons collection is free, but there are also value-added options such as videos, practice hands and podcasts.
The lesson collection is accessible on the TWiB part of the Adventures in Bridge website or via a weekly email to your mailbox. To access the videos, practice hands and podcasts you need to subscribe to a paid-for account - but the lessons are the prime value.
For instance look at these short lessons related to No Trump bidding suitable for club and congress level players:
