Why study this course

This course is designed for users who are keen to extend their understanding and knowledge of Microsoft PowerPoint beyond creating basic presentations.

This course builds on the introductory skills of PowerPoint Level 1. You will learn how to use themes, templates, slide masters, charts, animations and transitions, how to work collaboratively, and more.

Note: PowerPoint 2016, PowerPoint 2019, PowerPoint 2021, and PowerPoint 365 are all desktop application versions of Microsoft PowerPoint. PowerPoint 2016, PowerPoint 2019, and PowerPoint 2021 are the perpetual, bought-outright, stand-alone versions of the software; PowerPoint 365 is the subscription-based version. Anyone working with any of these versions will be able to successfully complete this course. Throughout this course you will be using the desktop app; the course does not cover use of the web/online app.
