I think that in the first case the original line was correct: a
twenty-minute training, a ten-kilometre distance, a ten-foot pole,
etc.: in English the unit of measure remains (IIRC) invariable (i.e.
does not take the mark of the plural) when used with a number before
the measured noun.
Agreed. As a native English speaker, "a 20 minutes interactive training"
is wrong. It is better without the "s" of "minutes", but actually "a
training" doesn't sound right in either case.
In my opinion, it should be either:
a 20 minute interactive course
or:
a 20 minute interactive training session
