Powerpoint shows to die for

Have you ever watched your audience's attention gradually slipping away?  Do you get tetchy questions and think 'they are missing the point?'  Do you wonder why people don't congratulate you on the Powerpoint show you put your heart and soul into?

Well now you can cure all that, and all you need to do is spend about an hour a day for a week (any hour of the day) learning on-line with colleagues from around the world

Enrol for this Webucate-driven class and you will learn:

Time-honoured proven rules for constructing your talk
The seven biggies that will make your Powerpoint shows sing
The 5 big mistakes everyone makes in presenting to an audience
How to make graphics add impact rather than hinder your talk
How to avoid the fumbling mouse clicking as you try and find your file on your laptop
When to use video and audio
How to keep your audience's attention for the WHOLE of your show
How to quickly create clear handouts that will leave a lasting impression

During the course you will get to discuss some good and bad examples of Powerpoint shows, then be able to comment on those of your on-line classmates.   By the end of the week you will have a working Powerpoint show that you can be proud of.  And you will have learnt how to do it for yourself, so the next time you need to create a lasting impression you'll have all the tools in your head.

Course Leader

Tom Sterling has produced some of the most powerful Powerpoint shows ever seen, and some are in use today all around the world.  Usually Tom is commissioned to rework somebody's Powerpoint show into something more effective.  However, he just can't keep up with demand so this seems a much better use of his time - teaching the skills to others.  Tom is a fully qualified graphic designer, and has been authorised by the Design Council to help companies with their design work.  Tom is a Director of Durham Associates Ltd and has worked on design projects for Procter and Gamble, Microsoft and The Chemical Industries Association.
