Concerned with more recently picked part of meal in educational update (9,6)

I believe the answer is:

refresher course

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'educational update' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't see how they can define each other.

'concerned with more recently picked part of meal in' is the wordplay.
'concerned with' becomes 're' (re can mean regarding, concerning).
'more' becomes 'er' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'recently picked' becomes 'fresh' (I've seen this before).
'part of meal' becomes 'course' ('course' is part of 'meal').
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'fresh'+'course'='freshcourse'
'er' put within 'freshcourse' is 'freshercourse'.
're'+'freshercourse'='REFRESHER COURSE'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for refresher course that I've seen before include "study update" , "further education?" , "Training" , "it helps you get up to speed" , "sweet group?" .)
