I agree, give them a test environment and let them start banging away.
One benefit that a class does give you though is the sharing of war
stories at the lounge in the evenings and the BS/Q&A session following
the Friday class.

For me, the best way to learn a product is to read the product
documentation and interact with the product in a lab. With a class,
you're basically going through a manual that's a subset of the product
documentation and doing lab exercises. You're also having to move
through the material at the pace of the least experienced student, and
if you're going to take an exam after the class, you'll need to read the
docs anyway. I'll take the manuals any day over a class.
