I was the one who was getting "checked out" (by an FBO).

When I do insurance checkouts for pilots the insurance co usually asks
for specific wording. For an FBO checkout you can just say "checkout".
You can log instruction for both instruction and evaluation. Its
pretty difficult for one to happen without the other. Most would agree
that they learned more on their checkride than flying solo, despite
the fact that the FAA says you can't instruct during a checkride.
