Garth Brady,
It's very possible the two do not line up. I would look to move the blocks down instead of the topics. Just add more margin to the block column if you want. I think there is space at the top for course completion text. However, something like this might help:
[data-region="blocks-column"] { margin-top: 3rem; }
Copy and paste this into the bottom SCSS box on the Colours page of the Fordson Admin.
