crash course
Rapid learning session
A crash course is intensive, accelerated instruction designed to impart essential knowledge quickly: I took a crash course in Spanish before the trip.
The term suggests compressed learning—covering in days or hours what might normally take weeks.
The crash evokes speed and urgency rather than collision, though the experience can feel like both.
