Back when I was in the army the objective when doing individual land nav was: go hide in the woods until around the time to go back. Of course there was a bit of walking because we never started and ended at the same place so you had to have some familiarity with finding your way in the woods. Once in a while they would go out and change the point numbers around, usually when it was an actual test, so you had to know actual land navigation skills if you didn't want remedial training on the weekends.

The last land nav course I ever did was in the reserves and in the mountains. Instead of traipsing through the underbrush I just followed the fire breaks and occasionally took azimuths off surrounding mountain peaks and only missed one point because I didn't feel like hiking up the steep hill it was on top of.

Not too sure I see the value in online land nav but I also learned it before GPS was really a thing.
