Presentation Academy

Learn to make and give presentations – the skills for Microsoft PowerPoint, LibreOffice Impress or Google Slides. Twenty-three lessons in five modules: starting from your message, telling a story, strong openings and endings, slides that support you, layouts, title slides, bullet points, pictures and alt text, charts that make one point, tables and diagrams, ordering, themes, fonts and sizes, the slide master, colour contrast and accessibility, transitions, speaker notes, running the show (F5, B for a black screen), rehearsing, handling nerves, voice and body language, taking questions and presenting online. Then build a deck in our own slide maker – five layouts, themes that pass the WCAG contrast rules, pictures, notes, drag to reorder – and present it full screen, or print it to PDF. Eleven tasks tick off as you go.
