It was very organized and stress free. 1 oral and 1 checkride. Much easier than all the other nonsense. The checkride itself was equivalent to the AQP Manuevers validation from what I understand. We did a loft for practice after the checkride.
Sounds like a good program. My first type rating was a very disorganized 135 non AQP training program on a Beechjet, coming from GA. One oral, one ride and done in a couple weeks.

AQP can also be a challenge to those who are starting at their first 121. The KV and MV are easy enough and straight forward but it seems it’s the QLOE that is the biggest speed bump. Doing a line flight evaluation only doing a few sessions can knot some people up. That’s what I think was advantageous of a PC, no different than any cert ride they’ve taken before.

But as stated when a program does it well, it can be well above any PC training program.
