Description:

PowerPoint can be used for much more than just to replace “transparencies” for stand-up presentations. This full-day workshop builds upon the lessons learned in the Fundamentals class.  Examples on how best to convey your messages depending on the audience and location, focusing on streamlining information for impact without losing anything important. Plus, learn how to take that presentation/course and create handouts for students and a manual for the presenter/instructor. Feel free to bring your own ideas and images to incorporate in the final class project.

Prerequisite: PowerPoint 2013: Introduction or equivalent experience/skills. If you have not completed PowerPoint 2013: Introduction, please contact the Learning & Organization Development team to verify equivalent experience/skills.
