These skills include everything from understanding PowerPoint to developing a storyboard with a well-defined purpose and incorporating this storyboard into a succinct and impactful presentation with clear logic and flow.   This 2-day, instructor-led classroom training starts by teaching participants how to develop a plan for their presentation before jumping into PowerPoint, enabling them to create a clear and informative story. In day 2 we take our storyboard to PowerPoint, learning data visualization techniques and getting the logic and flow right. The entire session is driven by a real business scenario identified by the client. This session can be combined with other training topics and/or combined with online pre-work for even more content.   **Optimum class size:** 10-15 participants **Length of session:** 120 minutes **Cost:** Starts at $8,000 USD (includes customized workshops) per session   [![Contact us for more details](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/269713/1a2f38e9-94c3-445b-8368-edf8673bbf07.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/269713/1a2f38e9-94c3-445b-8368-edf8673bbf07) Related to: [Data Visualization](https://blog.cmkg.org/essential-retail-cpg-skills-and-topics/topic/data-visualization), [Presentations](https://blog.cmkg.org/essential-retail-cpg-skills-and-topics/topic/presentations), [Organization & Team Solutions](https://blog.cmkg.org/essential-retail-cpg-skills-and-topics/topic/organization-team-solutions), [Classroom Training](https://blog.cmkg.org/essential-retail-cpg-skills-and-topics/topic/classroom-training) ## Virtual Classroom Training FAQ: - **What will individuals learn?** Each Virtual Classroom training has defined learning objectives.
