Before you sign up for any presentation skills programme, you need to acknowledge that presenting has changed drastically over the last few years. The Covid pandemic turned us all into virtual presenters who need broadcasting skills, now and for the rest of our careers. Learning how to master virtual presentations and cameras is very different to the old live presentation skills that professionals used to learn.
The Face-to-Face and Virtual Presentation Skills Master Class offered by Communication Guru is designed to teach you all you need to know about presenting confidently and professionally, whether it be live or virtually.
The new age of hybrid communication, requiring live and virtual presentation skills, is what this innovative and practical presentation skills programme is all about. The modules covered on this 2-day programme will boost your self-confidence, help you to manage your nerves, and ensure that you present with impact to influence your stakeholders and achieve your business objectives.

The course was incredibly useful, and it all came together very well. I especially enjoyed practicing thinking on your feet, as well as redoing the virtual presentation. Yesterday I blushed very red, but today - nothing!
Karen Shewan - Institutional Client Manager, M&G Investments
It turns out that the rules of engagement are different between video conference and face-to-face presentations. Communication Guru gave us the tools to engage and deliver our message clearly and effectively. Using the rules that they taught us, we had a very good client meeting. We were able to keep the client focused and interested during a three hour pitch over video call.
