How about "workshop"?

I agree about the kiddish vibe of "camp" and I also agree that "retreat" has a sort of religious hue to it as well. Some guy died on a "mysterious Buddhist retreat" recently.

I like workshop best of all the options presented so far.

No one seems to have suggested 'class' yet, which confuses me a little.

In my mind classes are things that I take for an hour or two, not a weekend or a whole week.
