Picking up our puppy next weekend and want to go about things the right way. Has anyone done the above. What are they for, were they beneficial and at what age do they start?

Thanks in advance.

I found the puppy classes very useful for socialisation.

To be honest I never got either of mine to follow more than just the basic commands, although I think that the exposure to the noise (chaos at times) and number of dogs in the class was of the greatest benefit.

See if your vet runs puppy parties - many offer these FOC and they're great for gentle initial socialisation before going onto actual training classes.
