Presentation Development and Design Live Webinar - June 19

We use presentations as one of our primary strategies to share content-knowledge, build skills, ignite calls to action and affect culture change. However most of us never receive any formal training in presentation design. In this three-hour webinar workshop, participants will learn practical skills to plan and deliver exceptional presentations using the tools and resources they already have.

We use presentations as one of our primary strategies to share content-knowledge, build skills, ignite calls to action and affect culture change. However most of us never receive any formal training in presentation design - despite all we expect them to do for us. 

In this three-hour webinar workshop, participants will learn practical skills to plan and deliver exceptional presentations using the tools and resources they already have. We’ll also highlight ways to transfer face-to-face presentation skills to the virtual environment.

After the session, participants will be able to:

• Apply a four-step process to create brain-friendly presentations
• List the most common presenter mistakes and understand how to prevent them
• Use tools and techniques that enhance learning
• Use and display data effectively
• Increase audience engagement and participation
• Design compelling, polished visual aids for presentation

Target Audience

Nonprofit and public sector professionals, substance use prevention professionals, behavioral health professionals, public health professionals and others tasked with delivering presentations
