Course description
Being able to deliver confident presentations is an essential life skill that has not disappeared over Lockdown. Many participants attend because they realise that will not be able to advance in their careers if they continue to avoid facing an audience, but have not yet overcome their fears.
Alternatively, some participants are already competent but understand that developing mastery will enable them to demonstrate real leadership within their organisations and with external stakeholders. With webinars and remote presentations becoming the new normal, you may feel you need help transferring your skills to a new medium.
This interactive presentation skills training course helps you develop skills for crafting persuasive presentations and delivering speeches with lasting impact. The programme combines insights and techniques for an effective preparation process with opportunities to put these into practice.
Taught twice a week over 7 weeks as 14 bite-size evening classes over Microsoft Teams, the presentation skills course offers flexibility combined with expert tuition to take public speaking to the next level.
We have had many successful students enrol and take the learnings and skills from the course and put them into practice. Enrolling on the Presentation Skills course can really make a difference to public speaking confidence and skills.
Do you avoid opportunities for progression due to a fear of public speaking? Perhaps you are already a competent presenter but want to perfect your skills to demonstrate real leadership? Our part-time Presentation Skills course can be useful across all career stages, with professional and personal benefits.

Assessment and certificates
The presentation skills course will be taught through a blend of lectures, discussion and practical activities – individually, in pairs and as a group.
As the course progresses, you will be challenged more. You will be asked to deliver a five to seven minute presentation that has been prepared in advance. You will be given extensive evaluation and recommendations, with an opportunity to apply some of the suggestions straightaway for further feedback.
There is no formal assessment and you are not given any formal qualifications on completion of the course. However, if you attend 70 percent of the classes you will be awarded an official City, University of London certificate.
