I personally require more detail as I still find all the different elements hard to separate from each other, SharePoint & Teams particularly seem to overlap, which confuses me.

It's very useful, straight to the topic and the questions we asked. The best part was the practice because it makes the chances we understand and remember higher.
May be if desks in the room are organised differently the trainer would have had easier access to see what each attendee was doing individually.
