Learn how to create visually interesting presentations that will cause people to sit up and pay attention.
Learn how to create visually interesting presentations that will cause people to sit up and pay attention. We’ve all suffered through poorly constructed presentations and boring slide shows. It seems like everyone uses the same designs and the same graphics over and over. But it doesn’t have to be that way. You can liven up your presentations by incorporating just a few basic tools.
Since Microsoft PowerPoint is the most popular tool for creating presentations in the workplace, using it effectively is a crucial skill for any business professional. In this course, you’ll learn to modify your bulleted and numbered lists, add tables to make your text more readable, and add interesting animations to keep viewers engaged. Don’t want to start with a blank presentation? You’ll learn how to start from a template design. Want your text boxes to have a specific look? You can customize them yourself. Need dynamic pictures? You’ll learn how to search for and modify graphics. Join our PowerPoint expert, Kathy Snizaski, as she shows you how to create and customize engaging presentations and present them flawlessly.

I am the owner, trainer, and facilitator of interactive business Training. My company provides corporate training for businesses or individuals and we are also a Microsoft partnership. My professional passion is staff development. Training is my ‘chocolate’. I have a gift for being able to learn a topic (most of the time technical) and break it down in a way that adults can not only understand but are able to apply to their jobs to become more efficient and productive.
