I don't think it needs to be to the same degree as a class 1 or 3, but showing that you understand the limitations, safety checks, and being able to prove you have the skills to actually drive such a vehicle would be a plus for everyone on the highway.
Every RV driver should have to take a course on why you have over sized rear view mirrors on your truck and motorhome . Also why do you go into a 60km corner at 35Km and the speed up to 110Km on a straight stretch of highway while you straddle the center line so no one can safely pass you !!!!
