How the course works
Delegates are given the opportunity to identify the most likely kinds of presentation they will be expected to make and come up with a list of their objectives for the course.
Everyone taking part will carry out a range of different presentations and will be given feedback that will build confidence and help to identify strengths and weaknesses, in a positive way.
Video is used as a means of giving feedback, as well as providing course delegates with a record of their presentations and a practical learning tool for use after the course is over.
At the end of the course, delegates prepare a personal action plan, for use back in the workplace.
