From boring to inspiring presentations!

Interactive elements

There are times while making a presentation where you would like the opportunity to show an external video, PDF document or picture regarding the subject of the slide you are currently working on. We will show you how to create interactive elements using hyperlinks which will allow you to do exactly that. These elements can be shapes, text, images or simple transparent overlays. Using this technique you will be able to add simple navigation to your presentation.
Learn how to create interactive elements to allow navigation in your presentation.

Visual slides

You have probably heard of the expression: "A picture is worth a thousand words". Unfortunately not everyone takes this to heart. We still see people that keep on using bullet points and large amounts of text to create the most boring slides. But it gets worse! In somes cases, the speaker then also starts reading that text out loud. This topic is dealt with extensively during the course to help you avoid those situations.
During the course you will learn to use high-quality images to create visual slides.

Working with charts

You can use Excel to incorporate data, graphs and charts into your presentation. This will enable you to revise data at a later stage. During the course we teach you how to use Excel to make better looking, easy to understand diagrams and we we will show you the best way to highlight a key message. The next thing we will then teach you is how to apply animations so information can be carefully conveyed to your audience step by step.
Using Excel to incorporate your graphs and charts will help you bring your message across.

An overview of this course

Here’s what some participants had to say:

"I can recommend it to anyone"

"I learned a great deal about PowerPoint during the course. I found working with hyperlinks and making presentations interactive particularly interesting. I also thought it was good that they asked us beforehand which PowerPoint version we use and what we really wanted to learn. I can definitely apply this in my work. I can recommend it to anyone who works a lot with PowerPoint but would like to pick up some useful tips and tricks. I took the PowerPoint 2.0 and 3.0 courses.”

"I'm very satisfied and pleased"

"A whole new world opened up for me when I saw all the things you can do with PowerPoint. PPT Solutions made a corporate presentation for us. I then took part in the course so I could do this myself. It was a very interesting and informative workshop, which Robbert gave with a great deal of expertise. I was able to put everything I learned into practice immediately, which is great, of course. All in all, I'm extremely satisfied and overall very pleased that I took this PowerPoint course.”

Rob Verberne,

"A real Prezi-killer"

“Are you serious? Are you going to take a PowerPoint course? Wouldn't it be better to take a Prezi course?” A reaction from the people around me when I told them I was going to take this course. Well... I discovered very quickly that I could really do with this course. Having done the training, I almost feel like a PowerPoint ambassador and, indeed, a real Prezi-killer. You can do so much in PowerPoint! You just need to realise this. We were given a lot of practical tips during the PowerPoint 2.0 course."
