I had the same concerns but went for it anyways. Some of it is basic - which is good in a way because it filled in a few holes for me. For instance, I had never heard the term hyperfocal distance before which is one of the pitfalls of being self taught. I actually think a newbie would be really challenged by the information. For someone more advanced, it's a nice refresher plus, it's filling in the gaps in my knowlege. The great thing is that you can do the course at your own pace. Honestly, I haven't even watched the videos. The audio tapes and books seem to be plenty but I will eventually bust out the videos to see if I have missed anything. They have you fill out a questionaire that you send in with your first projects. I was tempted to say very little about my experience at first but decided that honesty was better. The instructor that I was assigned to made a comment on my first review about my experience and let me know that he was going to be able to push me harder and give me more indepth critiques than he could a rank beginner. That's good since that will help me to get better from my current level intead of having to start at the bottom and work my way back up. Just so you have an idea, the first 3 assignments were
Expressing a sense of speed
Selective focus
Landscape using hyperfocal distance
