At my company we have soldering station for learning purposes and when someone has never soldered anything we will just find some old/broken electronic device and let the person desolder everything on the board (and maybe solder some stuff back on). It's great way to get a feeling for it and also is a good opportunity to learn about different components on the board. It's less interesting than making something "functioning" but helps to reduce the fear of soldering "wrong" or breaking something.
