Renewal coven does not expect any prior experience or training with any of the concepts we teach and the lessons are designed with no expectation of prior knowledge.
While Path of Light does recognise prior experience and learning within other traditions, and indeed we hold the maxim "He who says mine is the only way is surely not among the Wise", Renewal Coven does not recognise learning or experience with another tradition when teaching students.
This is in part because of the prevalence of information that is close to Path teaching but inaccurate enough to cause misunderstandings and difficulties later on.
Prior experience in another tradition may help you grasp the concepts more quickly later on however all students of Renewal coven must undergo both a full Questioner and full Seeker cycle.
