training session

Structured learning time

A training session is a scheduled period devoted to instruction, practice, or physical conditioning.

Athletes have training sessions with coaches; employees attend training sessions to learn new skills or software.

The phrase emphasizes the bounded, purposeful nature of the activity: I have a training session at the gym this afternoon.
