do we have any training video/material from PTC to learn about Creo Tubing/Piping ? One of my project requirements, i need to create the flexible PVC hoses.

You probably do not need to use Piping module unless you are creating a very complex design. Using Piping module requires a lot of up front configuration work to use effectively.

For this problem, I create a series of points, using either existing model features to define the point location or using points from offset coordinate system if there are no features to define the point location.  Then use the Curve Thru Points function to create the path.  Most of this is done in ASM mode using surfaces (for the visual representation) and I use bulk parts to drive the BOM table.
