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 ## [Building Powerpoint and Presentation Skills](https://blog.cmkg.org/essential-retail-cpg-skills-and-topics/building-powerpoint-and-presentation-skills-online-training-course-from-cmkg-) ***Training Topics, Format, or Audience: ** [CPCA](https://blog.cmkg.org/essential-retail-cpg-skills-and-topics/topic/cpca) [Beginner Level](https://blog.cmkg.org/essential-retail-cpg-skills-and-topics/topic/beginner-level) [PowerPoint](https://blog.cmkg.org/essential-retail-cpg-skills-and-topics/topic/powerpoint) [On-Demand Learning](https://blog.cmkg.org/essential-retail-cpg-skills-and-topics/topic/on-demand-learning) [Presentations](https://blog.cmkg.org/essential-retail-cpg-skills-and-topics/topic/presentations) [Training Course](https://blog.cmkg.org/essential-retail-cpg-skills-and-topics/topic/training-course) Course Overview Participants build their skills in technical and tactical functionality of PowerPoint and presentation skills.
