I recommend this webinar series from CommonLook, a company that makes software for editing PDFs. The webinars are focused on their own product, but you can use Acrobat Pro to do the same things.
Find two of these webinars here below, for which I signed up and already have the link to share:
- Tables and Complex Tables: webinar and youtube
- Verification of Correct Tag Use and Common Mistakes: webinar and youtube
