Personally, I don't agree, though.
The AS as well as the Seanchan naturally assume that damane can make the Traveling weave. As far as I know, the Traveling weave isn't that complicated, and IIRC there is no other example of damane not being able to make a certain weave, because of the a'dam.
Besides that, it seems more interesting for the plot, if the Seanchan gained Traveling.
Finally, even BS stated that the raid was a success, which indicates that the Seanchan at least got Traveling:
Q: "Do the Seanchan consider the raid on the White Tower a success?"
A: "Yes, they consider it a success, but they’re disappointed that they didn’t get their hands on the Aes Sedai superweapon."

They can use the a'dam to force an Aes Sedai or channeler with knowledge of the weave to use it.

All you need is one to reveal a weave, and the knowledge will spread.

Well, the ability to learn from damane is still subject to debate ....
