There is some neat tech that the E3 team has plans to use, which would
also be a good framework for this kind of interactive training:

On a less interactive level, we've also got some trainings tailored to

We've never really tried systematically pointing newbies to a
structured orientation (as opposed to giving them 10 or 20 links to
explore without guidance).
