Advanced Learning and PrC's

[tundrawalker1]

Hey gang. I hope this question has not been asked and answered before but if so, if you wanted to direct me to the thread, that would be great. Anyway, here is my question:

If you have a class with the Advanced Learning feature (like the Beguiler) and you PrC out into another class that gives "+1 level of arcane spellcasting class" (like the swiftblade), would you still get the benefit of the Advanced Learning if you don't go back to the first class?

For example, you build a beguiler 6 then go into Swiftblade for 4 levels. Would your 7th level (which is the 1st level of Swiftblade) still give you the Advance Learning? I am inclined to believe it does not but I vaguely remember something about Advanced Learning still being available.

Thanks for looking.

Class features are not advanced or granted unless specifically spelled out by the PrC (such as the one found in Weapons of Legacy). Advanced Learning is a class feature. The only thing that gets advanced in most cases is strictly spellcasting.
