I went to a Presentation Skills Training at work last week. At first I thought it was pretty bad. There was two trainers, one lady and a man; and somehow the man stutters a little when he first introduced himself.
I am a very bad student. I think since I was in primary school I tend to think this teacher of mine is nuts! I scrutinize my teacher’s pronunciation and general knowledge. Sometimes I pointed it out to the teacher and sometimes I don’t but either way, I must be such a pain in the ass didn’t I? Back to the presentation skills, luckily I never had any formal training on presentation so even when the trainer tend to say err.. err… sometimes when he speak, the content of his training materials make it up for his weaknesses and overall I think I learnt quite a bit of new things and benefited from the training.
At one point I wonder if I can do a public speaking training online as easy as we do our online computer training. E-learning solution is available in the form of either cd, intranet, or online training video courseware. Taking a self-study CBT training course allows us to work on our own PC or laptop when and where we want. Self-directed computer training video courses are self paced.
