Presentation Skills for Information Professionals [Ref. No. TG1/PRES]
Twitter: @cpd25_M25 #cpd25
Do presentations fill you with dread? Do you have your first presentation coming up? Come along to cpd25’s Presentation Skills course and you will learn more about how to present, cope with nerves and practice presenting.
At the end of the workshop you will have:
- Examined why understanding your audience leads to a better presentation
- Discussed why preparation and structure are important
- Identified why you get nervous and developed confidence building strategies
- Created a personal action plan for future presentations
In small groups you will have the chance to present and give feedback on each other’s presentations. By the end of the day, presentations will seem that much more achievable than they have before.
