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.
For technical assistance there is a “contact us” button found at the bottom of every page.
An in-depth course handout is also provided with more information than is presented online. Print or download a copy of the handout for future reference. There will also be several opportunities for reflection, using your handout, throughout the course.
In this course, trainers will explore best practice strategies and technologies for creating real handouts. Handouts that 1) complement your session and 2) create a powerful reference for session participants. Successful completion of this course will be the submission of an effective, powerful handout.
