slide:ology Workshop

quote

In this day-long workshop, you will engage in a series of fun and hands-on exercises, in which you will apply the principles in slide:ology using real-life examples.

In addition to learning revolutionary methods for producing content and slides for your next presentation, you will leave the workshop with a new perspective on presentations as a whole. This workshop is geared toward changing your mindset and approach to presentations as an effective communication medium.

Monthly workshops are held at the Duarte office, a creative workspace which will allow you to break away from your traditional surroundings, and conventional train of thought. Or, we can train your team on your turf. Whether we bring our standard workshop, or customized curriculum, a personal presentation design course us sure to improve your company’s communication from the ground up.

Hotel and Transportation

For out of town guests, we recommend staying at the Hilton Garden Inn in Mountain View.

The closest airport to Duarte is San Jose (SJC) with the second closest being San Francisco (SFO).

Interviews

We finished October strong with three seminars that went off like a bang. Watch and see what some of the attendees’ reactions were right after the session. We hope that you’ll join us in the spring and find yourself seeing things differently like these folks did.

We invite you to bring a camera and take pictures if you’d like. We do not allow audio or video recordings of the workshop. The schedule is a rough breakdown of the day’s events and may not reflect the actual schedule precisely.
