Lots of classes (vocational) are what you make out of them.
GM service schools have been the better of the ones I been too.
IMHO, from what I've heard Mopar, and Ford are getting to 
educated parts exchanging.  Some larger communities have
vocational schools that are getting good at this stuff.  Many
parts stores have warehouses that offer training classes.  
Allen Test Instruments, used to have some great stuff but ya 
had to buy a 20K scope to get into the class.   OTC had some.
Ya got to be a polite pain in the a$$ and sometimes you'll
luck out, and find some.
