The GÉANT Learning and Development Team (GLAD) work alongside the community to support the promotion of learning and development activities. Throughout August and September, GLAD are providing various training courses covering topics such as enhancing your presentation skills, understanding how to adapt and present knowledge, and an exploration of current training methods for those who actively deliver training.
Inclusive Presentation Skills – 13 August and 4 September
When developing and delivering a presentation, it is important to think inclusively about the diversity of your audience. This session will provide you with guidance on how to ensure any presentation you provide avoids any language or behaviour that might be offensive, insensitive, or discriminatory. It will also look at inclusive presentation visuals and ways to make any material more accessible for the whole community. This training session is suitable for anyone creating and delivering presentations across the community. The session will be delivered online and a link to join will be provided to all registered participants closer to the training date.
