If you have done a beginners course, the advanced course takes you through to that next stage of going solo in the club gliders. Also, many people enter gliding having already learnt to fly powered aircraft or are returning after some years away from the sport so the advanced course gets them quickly orientated & flying on their own as soon as possible.
