Slide Writing

Privacy notice: Once you have registered for this course, further organisation will be handled by the trainer. Your name and email address will therefore be passed on for registration purposes.

You are fed up with creating presentations: it takes too long, you waste time on formatting and you lack screen space for your ideas. Moreover, you get the feeling that your slides do not always excite your audience.

Goal
The goal of this training is to quickly create slides and stories that make you stand out, e.g. for a conference, an internal meeting, your thesis defense etc.

Content
In the theoretical part of the training, you will learn techniques for structuring complex information logically and for designing easy-to-understand slides and storylines quickly and efficiently.
In the practical part, you will then apply these techniques and produce slides and stories for your own work.
Ultimately, you will gain a complete draft of your own next presentation.

Methods
Practical exercises make up more than 60% of this training. Optionally, you can send an already existing presentation to the trainer and receive written, confidential feedback. 

Pre-Requisites
In order to take part in the online training, you need to have a PC/Laptop or a smartphone with an internet connection. Nothing else.
