My organization has over 18K employees and most struggle with "adopt new ways of working, and continued access to legacy tools" (Microsoft). We've provided years of migration training and resources however these trainings have been minimally focused on due to employees still having the old tools to complete tasks.  Current day, only leadership has access to legacy tools and don't quite understand how to properly send data to folks only using G. Workspace (ie: large data sets, complicated excel formulas, .xlsb formats, share permissions, protect sheets, etc).  Live trainer-led training is no longer available in our organization and we use online Google support pages heavily (thank you for making them easy to understand!), however this is a huge mindset shift for most people and the DIY learning isn't easily adopted. I find myself having to use Google online resources to paste into a Google Slide/Doc to recreate the steps with pictures and instructions.
