Learning to use Bloomberg Terminal via practice sessions

So I had started to use Bloomberg Terminal today at my college and realized that it would be really good if I could solve some practice assignments every day, like retrieving and analyzing information from indices, equities and other derivatives to get a hang of how its done. So could you guys suggest how I could do it ?
