Microsoft PowerPoint 2016 Introduction

This Introductory course to PowerPoint 2016 is designed for delegates who are interested in learning the fundamentals required to build presentations using Microsoft PowerPoint 2016. Delegates will explore the PowerPoint environment and make a presentation. Delegates will add their content such as text and pictures on slides to add-up clarity and add graphical objects to a presentation and edit them. Delegates will also add tables and charts to a presentation to present data in a structured form and then finalise a presentation.

This course will help to gain the ability to organise content, enhance it with high-impact visuals, and deliver it. In this course, delegates will learn to use PowerPoint 2016 to start building dynamic multimedia presentations.

Delegates will start by learning how to plan and create amazing presentations with the help of multiple slides and layout masters. Understand File menu options and Backstage View, and printing slides, and handout.

Delegates will find how to enhance presentation with pictures, WordArt, shapes, and SmartArt; also learn about adding multimedia effects for, e.g., animations, audio, slide transitions, video, text and object hyperlinks.

This course will teach to use various options on the PowerPoint Ribbon, including the new Tell Me feature and Smart Lookup, which permits us to look up definitions of a word or phrase. During this training, delegates will discover about creating and editing slides and run their presentations.
