This two-lesson class series is for those who wish to begin or increase their ability to use Microsoft PowerPoint. The lessons take you from getting started with your very first slide to completing a professional slide show presentation.
PowerPoint is an application that is part of Microsoft Office and used for creating slideshows. Slideshows are not only used for business presentations but just for fun: like picture slide shows at a family or community event. Our two-lesson class will get you started using PowerPoint right away to create slide shows that keep your audience engaged by applying professional design themes, using animation, and adding transitions between slides.
This class is for PowerPoint versions included in Microsoft Office releases from 2010 through 2019 and all releases of Microsoft 365 (formerly called Office 365).
Appropriate for Windows and Mac versions of PowerPoint.
PowerPoint is a complete presentation graphics package. It gives everything that we need to produce a professional-looking presentation. PowerPoint offers word processing software, outlining, drawing, photo editing, and presentation management tools – all designed to be easy to use and learn.
Lesson 1 – Getting Started with The Basics
● How to open PowerPoint ● Open a template ● Create a blank presentation ● Key terminologies ● Design your first slide ● Add slides ● Using SmartArt ● Saving your presentation
