Our online training is designed to re-create the classroom experience as closely as possible. It is a live training session using Zoom or Teams and the trainer is there throughout. The training is still hands-on so you do need to have the software installed on your own computer. The trainer shares their screen to demonstrate techniques and there is also the option of being able to share your screen if you are really stuck! Depending on the class size, which we still keep to a maximum of 8, questions can be asked at any time or at set points throughout the day.

The trainers like to see you! They much prefer it if you have a camera on so they can see you as well as you them.

We provide everything that you will need for a fun, productive day of PowerPoint training.

Everyone has their own computer to work on in a comfortable, bright, air-conditioned room.

We provide plenty of tea, coffee and biscuits, a delicious, freshly prepared lunch and a USB stick so that you can take files home with you.

We provide 6 months of post-course support as well.

If you get stuck on anything relating to this PowerPoint course simply get in touch and explain the issue.

We will make sure your trainer contacts you as soon as possible to help you out.

We don’t want to be the biggest training company but we are trying to be the best.

We have now won the Feefo Gold Award for customer service for 7 years in a row.

We always limit our classes to a maximum of 8 delegates but try to keep them smaller. During 2018 and 2019 our average class size was 4 people.

To back up our promise of great training we offer a 100% money-back guarantee.

Our focus is on you being a faster, more capable PowerPoint user when you return to work.

Our PowerPoint courses combine traditional teaching to explain new concepts and tools, with hands-on exercises.

The exercises ensure that you get plenty of time to try out what you have just been taught and make sure that you really understand it.

We also make sure that there is plenty of time for you to ask questions in case there is anything you are unsure of.

Yes. We issue certificates of attendance to everyone who attends one of our PowerPoint courses.

This means that in future you can prove that you have received professional PowerPoint training.

Please come dressed however you are most comfortable. Most of our delegates come wearing casual clothes.

All of our PowerPoint training courses use PowerPoint 2016 (2019 version).

If you’re using Office 365, PowerPoint 2019, 2013 or 2010 don’t worry though. Very little has changed in the recent versions of Microsoft PowerPoint and so the training will be highly applicable to you.

Also, our trainers have been living and breathing PowerPoint for years. They have huge experience of those versions of PowerPoint as well. They’ll be able to answer any questions on those versions of PowerPoint as well.

Our London training centre is very centrally located in the City of London.

It is a 3-minute walk from both Blackfriars tube station and Thameslink station.

See this link for full details of the facilities at our centre if you book PowerPoint Training in London.

Our combined PowerPoint course is made up of our introductory PowerPoint course and our advanced PowerPoint course.

It offers you a discount of £55 + VAT if you book both courses at that same time.

Our PowerPoint courses are focused on making you a fast, confident PowerPoint user. As such, they focus on how to use Microsoft PowerPoint (the most often incorrectly used part of Microsoft Office!) most effectively, not the design aspects of creating slides within PowerPoint.

However, our course for PowerPoint beginners does contain a section called ‘Brilliant Presentations’. This covers the basics of good clear design and how it interacts with presentation skills so that you leave us with a good understanding of the basics.

All aspects of printing MS PowerPoint presentations are covered in our beginners PowerPoint training course.

It covers printing slides, handouts, notes pages and outlines.

Our introductory PowerPoint course covers working with images and photos.

Clear, well-chosen images can make the difference between a presentation that has real impact and one that is quickly forgotten.

Importing Excel graphs into your presentation is covered in our Advanced PowerPoint Course.

To bring an Excel graph into PowerPoint copy it from Excel.

In Microsoft PowerPoint the graph can be pasted in as a picture or as a linked object from the Home ribbon and Clipboard group. It is amazing how many people still view Microsoft Office programs as things that you would use individually and not as a single suite, using Office together as a single tool will help you get the most out of it

A linked object will mean that updates in the Excel graph will be shown in the graph in PowerPoint!

This is covered in our PowerPoint Advanced course.

To use slides from other presentations the Reuse Slides option should be used.

This option is found on the Home ribbon under the New Slide command.

The presentation to merge from is browsed for in the right panel.  The relevant slides can then be selected from the panel which automatically merges them into the current presentation.

Inserting a video into a presentation is also a topic that is covered in our course for advanced PowerPoint users.

To insert a video into a slide use the Media group on the Insert ribbon.

A video can be inserted from an online source like YouTube or from the computer’s files.

Master slides are covered in our advanced PowerPoint class.

A master slide controls all of the slides or slides specific to the master slide layout selected.

Master slides are found in the View ribbon in the Master Views group.

Our PowerPoint courses combine some traditional classroom teaching with lots of hands-on practice.

We are focused on you returning to work a faster, more confident PowerPoint user. To do that we need to ensure that you have plenty of time working in the software, and lots of time to ask questions where you’re not sure.

Working on exercises during the PowerPoint training class allows you to get comfortable with the software and also gives lots of time for questions. Our trainers are on-hand throughout the exercises so if you get stuck or have anything you’re not sure about you can simply ask them to run through it with you then.

Yes. We provide post-course support for 6 months after your Powerpoint course.

During that period if you can stuck on anything that was covered in your course simply let us know clearly what you are stuck on and we’ll get your trainer to contact you as soon as possible to help you out.

Post course support is something we pride ourselves on.
