Introduction

This course will provide all the skills necessary to generate a professional looking PowerPoint presentation from scratch and to run slide shows using various animation effects.

The Slide Masters concept forms the crux of the course, due to its power of producing consistent-looking presentations quickly and efficiently.

Delegates will work with various slide layouts including text, graphics and charts. They will also design their own slides, using the Slide and Title Master.

Once the slides are designed and created, running the Slide Show is the final step in delivering the presentation. Setting slide transitions and adding custom animation should enhance the delivery of the presentation content, along with keyboard shortcuts for controlling the running of the actual Show.

The course will also offer hints and tips on effective slide design such as: the optimum amount of bullet points in a slide; which colours work and which don’t; what animation affects work best.
