The 1 to 2 months is only the beginning. It is the period where they familiarise themselves with their weapons and learn very basic moves. It is designed to be learnable by anyone, not just huntsmen. Civillians and even children can learn the basics, but will need higher level of skill to learn the more advanced forms.

The whole course will take anywhere vetween 3 to 5 years. Besides i dont want to waste too much time on teaching students one thrust, a swing and a few twirls when most OC applicants will be only 17 and making the course too long will deter peple from wanting to learn it.

Also students do not stop practising the basics even after they move on. Like a math teacher must first teach addition before moving to multiplication, but does not tell students to forget addition while learning multiplication. They will still learn and practise the basics, along with the other newer forms.
