No. This pre requisit MCC course was thought up for some reason by the JAA. CRM and MCC courses have been going on for a lot longer as you quite rightly point out after a series of accidents where attributed directly to the lack of co-ordination on the flight deck. They have been and still are run by your employer. In fact, you join any company these days and you will be given a CRM course as part of your induction.

I fail to see what you gain from this MCC course that you can't learn with a £9.99 book from amazon and a few orange crates with a few dials painted on and a broom for a yoke.
