Distinctive features of the course.

To present means (1) to develop an idea and (2) to persuade it is a good idea.

It is essential to know the basic logic of heuristic-emotional and logical-rational persuasion. This course teaches the most effective persuasive strategies.
Developing an idea requires precise techniques.

An idea is born, developed and consolidated using specific methods. This course teaches the most effective methods and the Mind Mapping technique. In addition, it provides downloadable templates to speed up the design and creation of the presentation.
Presenting means combining visual elements with narrative logic.

Knowing and applying the neuroscience of visual perception and understanding of concepts is essential. This course teaches you to effectively use text, tables, graphics, images and public speaking.
When the ideas are well structured, their realization in Word, PowerPoint or other is almost automatic.

Making captivating presentations depends on aesthetics but much more on the narrative, logic and visual coherence of the objects represented. This course teaches you how to quickly create a presentation using Word, PowerPoint (with or without public speaking), Prezi, or public speaking without slides, online and face-to-face.
