Now
that we can send emails round the world in seconds, watch pictures
of events as they happen on our TV screens and produce high-quality
printed material at the touch of a button – why should we bother to
stand up and talk to people?
The answer’s a simple one - there is no more effective way to
persuade a group of people than by speaking. You can use a well
crafted and effectively delivered
presentation to get an audience to believe in your ideas,
to consider your suggested course of action and to change their ideas about
anything.

A

Public Speaking audio learning programme
Audio learning programme Introductory Tips & Tricks CD
Carry-everywhere, just-in-time
Public Speaking cue-card
Public Speaking e-learning CD-ROM
|
|
Studio-produced audio learning content |
| |
A powerful set of audio CDs, created and structured by some of
the UK’s leading specialists in their fields provide essential
information, tips, methods and techniques for building
real-world skills. The modular approach allows you to “dip in
and out” of the materials and increase retention by learning
just a little bit at a time. Careful production then ensures
that you can pick-up from where you left off at any given time
just by going back to the beginning of any track.
|
Supporting CD-ROM
|
| |
It’s well known
that you can only develop skills in the real-world by taking
what you’ve learned and applying it. The supporting CD-ROM
which comes with each programme ensures that you always
practice the right things. User-friendly on-screen materials
allow you to revisit key information whenever it’s convenient
to do so, ensuring that you build skills using information
which is fresh, rather than based on information you only
vaguely remember from a training course you attended
months/years ago.
|
Just-in-time cue-cards
|
| |
It’s said that
practice makes perfect but this is only so if you practice
the right things. As a carry-everywhere
information-resource, your personal cue-card fits neatly
into a pocket to serve as a constant reminder of the methods
and techniques you’ll have
covered
in the learning programme. Cue cards help you build reliable
skills that achieve results in the real-world because they
help you focus on doing the right things - just at the right
moment.
