Description
Code: PPTSTART
Who should attend: This course is designed for anyone who needs to create basic presentations with text and images.
Requirements: You should be able to create and save a document (in any application) and lay out text. If you’re not confident in that, have a look at our Essential Skills Courses. You do not need prior experience of PowerPoint.
Benefit: PowerPoint can be used to communicate in a variety of ways. You may use it to present information to an audience in a room, or for people to view on their own screens. This course will take you through creating a simple presentation from scratch (with PowerPoint, simple is effective!). You will learn to use Master Slides to format your presentation consistently and ensure that logos are on the same place on each slide.
