To add to @Wibble said, I don’t think you’d learn to use a twinset or a pony on the day of a solo class.
You are pretty much learning to plan a solo dive, making sure that your config is sufficient and you understand that you shouldn’t do a too complicated dive for a solo dive compared to your previous experience.
Therefore all the skills you’ll do are skills you are supposedly familiar with: manipulating valves on a twinset, changing masks, … etc
In my class there was problem solving for the valves: the instructor would show us card to say what happened after you close the isolator valve, for example, one card will say that your SPG is moving down therefore the failure is on the same side than the SPG … etc
It’s important to note that Solo is a SDI class and not TDI, so it’s not only for people who did tech classes.
