Basic PowerPoint Training Course Content

Our Basic PowerPoint training course can be carried out in the following versions: 2010, 2013, 2016 and 365.

All of our courses are full day courses, typically running from 9:30am to 4pm with two coffee breaks and a lunch break throughout to break up the course. Timings can be slightly flexible though to fit in with your needs. We can also create a bespoke course to tailor the contents of the course to your needs. Just ask, we’d be happy to help.

Course Objectives

The objective of this course is to enable the trainee to understand how to create a simple slide show presentation with a master slide layout and some design templates. We will cover the introduction of text, pictures, charts and differing styles of slides. The trainee will gain good experience in how to run the slide show with transitions and applying simple custom animation. We will also look at action button and the introduction of inserting sound and movie objects.
