Presentation Skills for Professionals
Logistics & Agenda Details
This course is conducted at your location, at your convenience, nationwide.
We'll provide all student materials and videotaping systems. We ask only that you provide students, space for the program, and basic classroom supplies.
After your workshop is contracted, you will receive classroom setup guidelines. In general, the classroom requires tables, chairs, a whiteboard, a flip chart, markers, a TV/VCR, and a video projector (if available). TSOD provides student guides, a video camera, blank videotapes, computer, and a video projector (if unavailable otherwise).
Also, you will receive student instructions. In general, students only need to be aware that they are expected to make a five-to-seven-minute presentation at the very beginning of the course. They must prepare this presentation in advance.
