Back Public speaking

Present your research project

Training in public speaking

You come to this course with a presentation of your choice. Throughout the first day, we will help you make it more convincing, whilst teaching you a 3-step method to help prepare your oral presentations. Over the next 2 to 3 weeks, you will have time to work on your presentation at home. During a second training session, you then trial the new version and the group provide advice. This is the perfect occasion to improve presentation materials, simplify speeches and build-up some “catchy” catchphrases.
