Overview

In a communication led world, most of us have to give presentations – at conferences, receptions, pitches or in-house meetings. And most of us would like to stand out from the crowd – to give memorable presentations that really touch the audience.

This two day presentation skills course will help you find your own unique, high impact style. It will build on the skills you have and enable you to be a highly effective spokesperson for your organisation.

Description

Over the two days you will cover:

  • what makes a memorable presentation
  • attention grabbing openings and strong closings 
  • structuring your presentation for impact 
  • using visual aids, while avoiding over-reliance on PowerPoint
  •  building rapport with your audience 
  • handling questions 
  • developing an inspirational personal style that works in different settings 
  • representing your organisation – the implications for content and style
  • speaking with warmth and colour 
  • getting rid of 'ums' and other mannerisms 
  • giving a presentation that will get quoted 
  • a year of free support

This is a two day advanced presentation skills course, with a lot of practice using the different techniques, including video and feedback.

"The course was very good and about the right length of time each day. Covered the key points in delivering effective presentations and the trainer was excellent." MW, West Yorks Brick Authority

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
