and energy I've received in years!
I got my money's worth in the first hour!

HOW IS THIS TRAINING DIFFERENT FROM OTHER SIMILAR
EVENTS YOU'VE SEEN ADVERTISED?

You will not be herded into a massive meeting room with hundreds of other people. And it's hands-on, so you'll learn more from doing. You'll learn more in a smaller, more intimate setting from an instructor who uses the software every day.

COMPUTERS ARE PROVIDED
FOR HANDS-ON EXCITEMENT!

If the last thing in the world you want to do is to sit through three full days of PowerPoint training, but you know you need to learn it, THIS IS YOUR ANSWER!

Breeze through presentations 6 times quicker
with tips and tricks in this software!

"This is a great course for a broad range
of PowerPoint users. I feel prepared
to tackle a presentation now!"

Session Description - 4 Hours

This training is for people who are already experienced in common features of their software such as cut and paste. We’ll explore beginning PowerPoint, and will take you all the way to advanced multimedia features such as adding sound. We’ll focus on the features you’ll use the most every day, as well as features that will save you the most time.

You'll boost your productivity as we explore powerful, little known tips and tricks in this easy-to-learn software.

We're not going to waste your time on features you already know or on ones
you'll hardly ever use!

And you’ll learn from an expert who will explain everything in plain English and who will tailor the information to fit your growing needs!

Here's an Idea!
Sponsor one or more of your best customers.
Show them you appreciate their business!

Program Objectives

You’ll leave this session knowing how to:

Use PowerPoint presentation tips that will help you look even more polished!
Design and create PowerPoint templates for your Master Slide, Title Slide, and Handouts!
Change bullet shapes and colors to match your design and taste!
Create charts and graphs and how to animate them!
Create drawings and change how they appear!
Animate bullets and change slide transitions to make your presentation come alive!
Create action buttons and hyperlinks that make navigation a breeze!
Insert pictures and sound to create a multimedia powerhouse!
Create better handouts by sending your presentation to Word!
And a lot more in between.

HOW IS THIS EVENT DIFFERENT FROM OTHER SIMILAR
EVENTS YOU'VE SEEN ADVERTISED?
You will not be herded into a massive meeting room with hundreds of other people. You're hands-on and will learn more from doing in a smaller, more intimate setting from an instructor who uses the software every day.

WHY IS THE PRICE SO LOW?
Some people think a class has to be expensive to be worth attending. Not so! Our classes don't cost hundreds of dollars because we've figured out a better way.

Our training sessions are small and intimate. We don't need to hire an event staging company, a destination management firm, or other expensive support teams. We've thought through the process, streamlined it, and automated everything using technology (remember, that's what Peggy does for a living).

We don't use an 800 number that is often abused. If we did, we'd have to pass that expense on to you.

We don't hold our events at expensive hotels. We have access to excellent training facilities that can accommodate the small, intimate sessions we're known for.

We don't feed you. Wish we could, but if we did, we'd build that unnecessary expense into higher registration fees. As one of our students proclaimed in class, "I can eat later: I came here to learn." Our students bring their own lunch or eat when they leave.

PREREQUISITE
You MUST HAVE prior experience with the Windows environment, and it would be helpful if you have some knowledge of the software (if you're participating in the hands-on exercises). Without prior knowledge, you will impede the progress of others, and you might not be able to keep up. You can, however, come as an observer (fees still apply) to see how easy this stuff really is!

Go ahead and play around in the software before the training. It'll make that light bulb pop even quicker.

The instructor will be using PowerPoint 2000. Most people who come to this training using XP have been able to keep up, especially if they'd used the software before on a computer they were used to.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND
Busy executives, consultants, trainers, speakers, sales professionals, administrative assistants, small business owners, authors, publishers, and other corporate professionals. Anyone needing to use this software!

WHY ATTEND
Because 80% of the people still use computers like typewriters. Properly trained, you can finish work 6 times quicker, make fewer mistakes, and have higher self-esteem. The whole idea behind this training is to position yourself to spend less time working.

CANCELLATION
If you cancel before 5 working days of the workshop, you'll receive a full refund minus a 30% administrative fee.

At any time, you'll be allowed to send a substitute.

If we have to cancel the training for any reason, you'll receive a 100% refund. We will not be responsible for any losses you incur due to the cancellation of this or any of our training sessions. We would only cancel a class in extreme emergencies. Low attendance will not be the reason.

TRANSPORTATION
More on this when we announce the location.

MEALS
We are not serving food or beverages at this session. There are several eating establishments in the area. If we served food, we'd have to charge more for the workshop. As one attendee said during training, "I can eat later. I came here to learn!"

LODGING
No special arrangements have been made for this workshop. Lots of hotels are in the area.

MISCELLANEOUS
This is an adult event. No exceptions.

Please be on time, which means coming 20-30 minutes before start time. It holds the class up when you're late.

Dress is business or business casual, whichever is more comfortable for you.

GUARANTEE
We're so confident that this workshop is going to boost your productivity that we're offering a 100% guarantee! If you are not fully satisfied with what you'll learn in this workshop, you will receive a 100% refund. All you'll have to do is send us a signed letter on your company letterhead stating why you weren't satisfied.

"Worth every penny. The software I've been
using all this time is now worth so much
more to me-not to mention the hours
I'll save. Thank you, thank you."
