I've never had the opportunity to take formal classes for energy work/witchcraft, and I wouldn't have had the resources (money, transportation, etc) for it even if classes
were offered. That, and the fact that most local practitioners here would come from left hand paths which I wouldn't want to get involved in at this juncture in my life, pretty much ensures that almost all of my studies are undertaken alone with help from books and the wonderful people here.

That said- and why do I keep saying that so much- I do know what topics I'd love to learn about if I ever took a Wicca 101 class:
a) Along with the basic grounding and centering skills, learning exactly why they're so important makes sense to me. That is to say, what are the consequences of not having a proper foundation with these skills later on in someone's spiritual path.
b) Perception of energy and developing those senses. On paper, different kinds of energies "feel" different to us...but it becomes quite difficult sometimes to separate when the way something makes us feel has its source inside us or is a valid energetic perception.
c) Like EM said, basic shielding skills. More than that, a walk-through of how likely/unlikely psychic attacks are.
All of those points seem to be covered in your class, so looks like something I'd love to join
