Yes, already passed the MSA course in NH with 100% on the driving test and written test. A 15 MPH panic stop is way different than a 50MPH panic stop.
Principles are the same, though. I'd find a nice parking lot or remote road and practice. Refresh yourself on what they taught you at 15mph, then increase 5mph at a time when you feel comfortable. If possible borrow somebody else's bike just in case. 
The few times I've locked up my rear tire I worried that I put a big ol' flat spot on it, so I'd wait until the tire was nearing the end of its useful life (followed by the requisite burn out just before replacing it).
