PowerPoint is Your Secret Weapon

September 2 @ 10:00 am 12:00 pm CDT

PowerPoint is a surprisingly versatile tool which can go far beyond creating traditional presentations. Because the interface is familiar it can be a really simple tool to use for a wide variety of tasks, and we’ll see examples of many different content types in the session.

This in-depth hands-on workshop will look at PowerPoint interactivity, PowerPoint as a creator of brilliant posters or digital content for screens and social media, and even PowerPoint as a creator of video.
