Elevate your virtual presentations with proven techniques that help you break through the digital divide and make meaningful connections with audiences.

Even if you’re a good presenter in person, giving a virtual presentation brings its own set of challenges. You have to contend with a distracted — or worse, multitasking — audience, technical glitches, potentially awkward handoffs to co-presenters, or, if working from home, having your cat jump into frame while you’re presenting.

The Delivering Great Virtual Presentations workshop will teach you:

  • How to better organize your presentations for virtual delivery
  • When — and when not to — incorporate decks
  • How to tap into your own intrinsic on-camera style
  • How to make your virtual presentations easier to prepare and more compelling
  • Develop a style that translates well on video and helps you make meaningful, persuasive connections with your audience

You’ll get a chance to try out what you’re learning in front of the group, with live feedback, in a supportive environment.

Format Live Workshops (Virtual)

Duration 4 sessions - 90 minutes each

"I've been to presentation skills training before and this experience really exceeded my expectations. The program was very hands on which is really the only way to truly learn and apply the skills we were discussing."

"Loved this course! It provided great tips to help make presentations more effective, seamless and successful. I will definitely leverage these lessons in future and in-person presentations in my career."
