Presentations are something many people find daunting with some of most common worries including speaking in front of other people, forgetting what you are going say and being able to make your point clearly.

There is no quick fix to overcoming these worries, but proper preparation and practise can make a big difference.

We have created this dedicated training module, full of practical tips, to help you understand why presentations are important, how to prepare appropriately, and how to manage your anxiety on the day. 

The Effective Group Work module should take 30-45 minutes to complete and you can return to any part of the module anytime you like.
