RTR used to regularly provide skid pad education with DE. I believe that driving on a skid pad as well as driving on a track in the rain provides valuable experience. There is no substitute for seat time. As drivers experience different situations (taking corners on oil slicks, having their windshield pop out at 100mphWink, etc.) they gain valuable lessons that can not be fully learned in a class room.

It would be nice to see more of an education element with AX. It's a great learning experience and the instructors in hand help in an informal way, but a structured session would be really nice. On my last session Steve Mankowski took a couple of runs with me and it helped tremendously.... if only for switching on a few lights (figuratively!). It would be nice to have a "learning track" in one of the sessions where the car is designed to safely be run it the edge of control.
