Other forms: trainings

Training is organised learning that prepares you to do a job well. On-the-job training, a training course, training day.

It teaches a specific skill where education teaches understanding, which is the standard distinction and why the two words are not interchangeable. Physical training works by damage and repair: the adaptation happens during rest, not during the session. Note trainee, trainer; and train, meaning to draw along.
