'advantage of' is the definition.
'asset' can be an answer for 'advantage' (thesaurus). I'm not sure about the 'of' bit.

'out seats' is the wordplay.
'out' is an anagram indicator.
'seats' anagrammed gives 'ASSET'.

'setting' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for asset that I've seen before include "Valuable person" , "valuable sort" , "Useful item" , "Useful or valuable property" , "Something of value, worth having" .)
