I meant the SAME course... Ok... In art you might (nothing very
earthshaking) learn something new... But in a subject like Science, Maths or
Engineering you would hardly learn anything new.

Also this is not about gaining abilities... Abilities are reflected in the
game by skill. The only thing special about LotP from other profession
adding cards is the experience token. It seems to reflect the skill of
tactic/strategy.... So in this the only exception.
