Slidewriting – Create clear slides quickly (March 28th-29th, 2023) – Online Training

222_KP2201

Are you fed up with creating presentations? Does it take too long? Are you wasting time on formatting and lacking screen space for your ideas? Moreover, do you get the feeling that your slides do not always excite your audience?

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.

Contents

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 effectively. 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.
