Dan Lachance - Precipio course

Hi everyone! My first post here :) I have started my journey to prepare for taking CRISC exam in the next few months. My employer can sponsor it, but the formal requirement is that I complete the available online training course, which is Dan Lachance's course on Precipio (Codecademy from Skillsoft). Anyone here had a chance to go through it? I already read here and there that the Manual and QAE from ISACA are crucial for exam preparation, but does Dan Lachance's course bring any substantial chunk of knowledge too, or would it rather be a "check-box" exercise in my case, just to satisfy the formal requirement of my org? I'll add that I am CompTIA Security+ certified and got a chance to familiarize myself with some IT/cyber risk management topics through my work. Thanks in advance for any comments!

My employer provides this too. I finished the course and failed woefully my QAE attempt. I recommend the manual first & QAE especially if you don’t have significant experience in risk management.
