by riding course do you mean the MSF rider training course?if so they teach you there,they show you where everything is at (ignition,clutch,brakes,gear shift,all the controls on the handlebars etc)
then they make u get on the bike and move it from side to side,teach you clutch control, step by step,ride in a straight line,then curves,then twisting from cone to cone,etc..
so even if you have never been on a bike in your life,by the end of the day u will be riding and switching gears.
but it would be good if you did learn a bit before you go,you will be less nervous.
