I'm not trying to be cute or anything but this is what your employer should be paying out for. The course is a 7-8 day job excluding perf. and checklist training and shouldn't really be short circuited. Also, the CBT together with the manuals are part of the whole Type Qualification process and should not be divorced from it. The CBT course I did some six years ago was one licenced to what is now called CAE and I'd suggest that they will be guarding it very well.
The course itself, when done by a competent TRTO is really a doddle and the aircraft itself is very easy to fly (nearly as easy as a jet). You will enjoy it.
