Helping You to Confidently Speak in Public
Speaking in public ranks very highly in the things that people are fearful of, often in polls it ranks even above death. This course will give you the skills and knowledge to help you to overcome this fear, to improve your presentation skills and increase your confidence in giving presentations and speaking in public.
You will learn:
Planning and preparation - What are you going to tell them and how are you going to deliver the presentation. Learn about the presentation diamond and how to build on the knowledge you're passing on.
Structure a presentation logically - Learn how to structure your presentation with a beginning, a middle and an end so the audience can easily follow what you're going to tell them.
Body language, voice tone & words - You will learn how to best present yourself so the presentation audience isn't distracted or confused by the words you use, your posture, position, eye-contact, movement or facial expressions
Visual aids - You will learn how visual aids should be appropriate and proportionate to the subject matter, how you can avoid 'death by PowerPoint' and how to avoid slides that are packed with too much information.
Engagement techniques - You will learn how to keep the audience interested by telling stories and not simply giving data

Provincial regulators of CPAs in Canada do not require that independent providers of CPD be approved to offer courses. Instead, individual CPAs are responsible for assessing whether a CPD activity meets their requirements, and may take activities from any source provided those requirements are met.
Every course offered on LearnFormula is delivered by a qualified subject matter expert or learning organization, and advances learning objectives that are relevant to the responsibilities or professional competencies of Canadian CPAs. All activities on LearnFormula are quantifiable in terms of hours, and are also verifiable, in that users receive documented evidence of their attendance via a certificate of completion after finishing a course (and this certificate is stored by LearnFormula indefinitely). Nearly 100,000 Canadian CPAs successfully satisfy their CPD requirements via LearnFormula on an annual basis.
Very well done - she puts into practices what she teaches! Very helpful for giving a presentation and for someone who teaches a class or gives a presentation for colleagues.
As a teacher I found this very useful, especially tips on how to engage my 'audience'.
Excellent speaker "walking the talk" of strong, engaging presentation skills
I think I will benefit from this course as I'm not great at presentations
