"Very happy with the course."

"I’ve recently completed several training courses with STL, including Excel, Microsoft 365, CoPilot, and most recently, a full-day PowerPoint session. All have been super useful, but the PowerPoint training really stood out!

Before the session, we got a handy quick-check sheet with shortcuts (which was a lifesaver!) and were advised to use a second screen—great tip! The session itself was fast-paced, so it was important to speak up if you got stuck, but the trainer was really supportive and made sure everyone kept up.

We followed live demonstrations, then jumped straight into creating our own slides, using control-button shortcuts to format, customize, and design eye-catching presentations. We also worked with images, SmartArt, video/audio files, and even Excel spreadsheets. Plus, we learned how to customize the ribbon to make PowerPoint work best for us—such a game-changer!

There were morning and afternoon breaks and a full hour for lunch, which was great for keeping energy levels up.

If you want a hands-on, practical session that’ll boost your PowerPoint skills in a fun and engaging way, I’d 100% recommend STL. Looking forward to my next course with them! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"
