Learn how to push PowerPoint to its multimedia limits!
Today's high-tech audiences are accustomed to high-powered multimedia extravaganzas. They not only want to hear your message, they expect to be entertained at the same time. Now, PowerPoint puts a full multimedia studio right on your desktop so you can indulge and dazzle your audience with the push of a button. Using PowerPoint's powerful but flexible features, you can deliver a seamless multimedia experience that wows and captivates your audience rather than a series of disjointed slides that leaves them confused about your message.

Whether you need to crank out a last-minute presentation to bring team members up to speed on a project or develop a slick product presentation for a new client, PowerPoint provides the tools for delivering your important points powerfully and professionally. In this dynamic one-day seminar, you'll discover how to move beyond the black-and-white overheads and mylar of the past and leap into the world of computerized presentation graphics. You'll find out how to produce a collection of colorful slides with a unified design scheme … turn important words and phrases into animated action statements that fly across the screen … and time your slides to deliver your presentation on AutoPilot. From flying text to revolving images to words that dissolve before your eyes, you'll learn how to build a memorable multimedia experience that drives your message home and energizes your audience to act on it.

The best part of all is that when you attend this workshop, you'll find out how to use PowerPoint to achieve all this even if you've never used presentation graphics software before. In just one day, you'll not only cover PowerPoint's basic features but also tackle advanced techniques like voice narration, special effects and background formatting.

What's more, in addition to getting the technical training you need to operate PowerPoint like a pro, you'll also pick up dozens of valuable presentation tips and dazzling design techniques for creating visually stimulating presentations your audience will remember.
