Course Welcome and Introduction
Audio Transcript
Greetings! My name is Patti Singleton and I am the Professional Development Coordinator at the Human Development Institute. This course was first developed in 2007 for the Trainer’s Institute and has been presented and modified several times. This latest modification is for the Beyond Fundamentals – Tech for Trainers series.
In this course, you will explore several functions of PowerPoint. Some of them you may already know, others might be a refresher. We hope that you learn a few additional that you can use to either edit an existing or create a new PowerPoint presentation.
In this course there is an application activity. The application activity is used to assess your understanding of the features in PowerPoint. You must submit a PowerPoint to receive credit for this course.
In the course handout, there is much more information than what will be covered online. I hope you will keep the handout as a reference.
I hope you enjoy this online course and please don’t hesitate to contact us with any questions!
You will be provided opportunities to practice the skills throughout the course.
You may find that you need to start and stop the course. You are not expected to complete the course in one sitting. Please also feel free to reach out to the course facilitator if you have any questions about the content or application activity.

Incorporating Low-Tech and Easy Videos in your Professional Development
In this training, learners will better understand what low-tech and free or low-cost options are available to enhance professional development and increase retention.
You will have the opportunity to create your own video that you can use in your professional development. It is important to note that these outcomes do not include instructions on how to develop video but rather how video can be used. Due to the variation in the resources you have available (smartphone, video camera, webcam, etc.) and the pace at which technology changes, we will instead be providing resources to help you understand how you can use video and how you can create your own videos.

Digital media and content have come a long way. Tools and services are available now to make you (yes you!) the creator of digital content, to meet the needs of the consumer you are providing professional development services to.
