A poorly crafted presentation or weak presentation skills can ruin an instructor's credibility. It will also affect students’ ability to retain the information that has been presented, which means they will not be able to access the information in emergency situations. This class will give participants more confidence the next time they have to develop and deliver a presentation. Identify audience needs based on learning styles and brain research, learn how to use new and traditional instructional methods to enhance retention including visual elements to use and avoid, and learn how to effectively deliver a message that makes a lasting impression. This class goes beyond pointing out bad examples; it dives into why making those changes will benefit the retention rate of those in the audience.
