In my military days I undertook hypoxia/decompression training and found it very educational and amusing! I'm very glad I did it. However, it would not be practical to include it in commercial training. During my civil MCC and Type Rating, recognition of and reaction to a cabin altitude warning was covered in depth.

I reckon most competent airline pilots would probably have the mask on within 5 seconds of a cabin alt alert.
