Frequently asked questions

Who is the Presentation Skills course for?

Anyone who presents as part of their work: L&D and HR professionals, managers and executives, conference speakers, MCs, board presenters and media spokespeople. It suits people new to presenting and experienced presenters who want honest feedback and a stronger stage presence. No prerequisites.

Will I have to present on the day?

Yes, and that is the point. The course is highly interactive, with short practice presentations throughout the day and constructive feedback from the facilitator and your peers. Groups are kept small so everyone gets time at the front, and the facilitator creates a safe space to try things out.

What will I learn?

How to prepare and structure a presentation around its purpose, handle nerves, use your voice, breathing and body language to project authority, read and engage an audience, think on your feet, own your message, and choose visuals and props that support rather than distract.

It is a one-day course, 9:00am to 4:30pm, delivered live online via Zoom or face to face in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Canberra. You earn an AITD certificate and a digital badge on completion. In-house delivery is also available for teams.
