I have heard that these courses that are run by AAMI are next to useless, no how to control powerslides, knowledge of oversteer / understeer is taught, no limit braking lessons etc. It is more of a 'dont speed' lesson.
It was a while back that this was posted on either these forums or performance forums so it may have changed. Apparently the guy who went asked about limit braking and the instructor didn't even know what it meant. They were just told to push the brake pedal as hard as possible (going into a skid is not the quickest way to stop a car - it also will not let the driver be able to turn a car either).
