PowerPoint training 2

In this second of two PowerPoint trainings, learn to use photos, videos and graphics to illustrate an idea in your presentation. Ever heard the phrase, “a picture is worth a thousand words”? Using photos and other graphic elements within your presentation is not only stimulating and engaging for your audience, it can convey more to your viewers in a shorter amount of time than a whole slide of text. Some use cases for photos or videos in your presentation include;

1. Illustrating a complex process that instructs your audience
2. A visual introduction of members of your team or family
3. Showing your boss a testimonial of a happy client
