COURSE: EFFECTIVE PRESENTATION SKILLS

COURSE OVERVIEW

The overall aim of the Effective Presentation Skills (EPS) Course is, via the use of practical and interactive learning techniques and video footage, to assist delegates to develop into exceptional and confident presenters. Given that organisations rely heavily on presentations as a form of communication it is a necessary skill for employees to have, both to the benefit of themselves and the organisation.

“Presenting is not a dying art; it’s one of the fundamental assets of every successful person”

Learning from experience

The EPS programme will make use of video footage of delegates while they are presenting and, thereby, provide them with a basis from which to learn from their “mistakes”. Through the use of this footage delegates will be able to assess themselves and each other and identify the development opportunities that they have in order to become effective presenters. Use of this form of learning mechanism will create an environment for positive development from actual experience.
