Its not a test of flying the sim. That is what type ratings are for surely?
EASA

Whilst there is no formal Regulatory assessment for MCC, it is more than just an attendance course.
You do have to put in sufficient effort to reach a satisfactory.

JOC however is unregulated. The certificate issued for attending the course is a matter for the provider.

The APS is assessed and a minimum standard is required to be certified for the APS qualification. If the standard is not reached then a MCC certificate is another option.
I suppose a complete ‘no hoper’ leaves without any certificate.
Having said that, ‘never so never’ as a wise old hand one said to me many moons ago.
