October 24, 2009 - Microsoft New England Research & Development Center - Cambridge, MA

 

Event Registration is Open. Sign up now!!!

 

In the spirit of BarCamp, PresentationCamp is a collaborative, user-organized unconference focused on topics relating to the "Art of Presentation". This event is for students and professionals alike who wish to share, interact, and learn more about the design and delivery of presentations.

 

Effective presentation and public speaking skills are valuable in many  aspects of our work and life. There's an old adage that "Most people would prefer to be lying in the casket rather than give the eulogy.". It's funny because it's probably true. 

At PresentationCamp Boston we hope to draw on the wisdom of crowds to exchange ideas, experiences, and knowledge around the "Art of Presentation". 

Is it a conference? Yes, it is YOUR conference! Anyone can give a presentation or lead a session or roundtable. If you have something to share, a question to ask, or just want practice you skills post your session topics and join us on OCTOBER 24. This is open to students and leaders in the industry. 

Session ideas may include preparation, storytelling, overcoming nervousness, graphics layout, slide content, PowerPoint alternatives, and how to engage you audience. Your knowledge, experience, and curiosity are what will make this event a success. Register now and become a master of presentation delivery!
