I don't think that engine management is on the priority list though.

The course seems to be loosely based on the AOPA pinch hitter course and the main objective seems to be (where the pilot is incapacitated) :

Don't panic
Speak to somebody on the radio
Point the a/c where they tell you
Land it without injury

SWMBO is already pretty much there with operating the radio, transponder, straight and level, and simple turns so she's looking at doing the course for the confidence. I see it as stage 1 towards her NPPL / PPL
