I found stackoverflow very helpful while I was first picking up Git terminology. Questions like these ones were really useful for me (mostly because of their conciseness) and I kept them open in tabs during the first couple of weeks I used it. Maybe print out a couple of the answers in bold? Especially the diagram on the first one.
I also found a visual representation of the trunk to be amazingly useful but you're already covering that one with SourceTree.
Aside, this bit probably belongs in a comment but I lack the rep: I'm one of the junior consultants mentioned in the question. Before I started I had some idea what a source control system was and I'd poked SVN literally twice, Gusdor gives me more credit than I deserve. The whole team had high-quality specialised Git training, toys and time to play. The problem is not with Gusdor's instruction. I hope there's a good alternative solution to this so I can bookmark it hard and learn more.
