Moving from information to influence when presenting
with visual slides

Overview

Research tells us that, five hours from now, you’ll probably remember only 25% of what you’re reading right now. In three days, that figure will drop to less than 10%.

 

Course benefits

  • Significantly improve the quality, memorability and effectiveness of your PowerPoint presentation
  • Create more effective, memorable presentations – and create them faster
  • Present complicated topics with ease

Retention problems cost businesses billions in lost sales, repeat training and diminished productivity. What difference would it make to your organization’s bottom line and your career if you could increase the impact and retention of your presentations by 50%, 100% or even 150%?

 

Microsoft PowerPoint® is a powerful tool that can make presentations more impactful and memorable. But, not used properly, presentations can either be easily forgotten, or quite memorable – but for all the wrong reasons. EDC’s Effective Powerpoint® Content & Presentation Skills workshop is designed to help you utilize the full potential of PowerPoint. Using your own presentation, you’ll discover techniques to enhance your message and its impact, from choosing the right words to perfecting your visual layout.
