First speeding ticket

[sorin1987]

I got my first speeding ticket in 7 years of driving. A speed camera caught me doing 37 in a 30 mph zone. I have received the option to attend a speed awareness course which is the same price as the ticket but I don't get the 3 points so I enlisted for the course.
I understand that you can fail the course. Can somebody who attended a course like this tell me what is the structure and how should I prepare for it?
