Design & present your own Poster in PowerPoint

Learn to design your scientific poster with focus on well communicated flow, graphics and priorities – and deliver a well-prepared presentation. 

Designing a scientific poster requires a good understanding of the features in PowerPoint and a sense of designing flow, use of models and graphic overview.

This workshop combines the technical part of designing with PowerPoint - and the conceptual part of communicating though your own design.

This workshop is for both beginners and those already familiar with basics of poster design. Please indicate your level upon registration.

The contents of this workshop are: 

  • Designing in PowerPoint – beyond the default slideshow
  • Prioritizing and structuring our scientific poster
  • Building graphic models that underline your messages
  • Choosing the color scheme that creates focus and a balanced design
  • Building a storyline of your poster
  • Getting insights on personal presentation structure and style
  • Receiving personal feedback on your draft poster

The aim of the workshop is to provide you with the skills and understanding for working with poster design independently and to train basic presentation skills.

After the workshop you get the possibility for personal feedback on your first poster either in writing or in a 1-1 online meeting - book your slots between May 2nd and May 19th.

Instructor: 

Mads Svaneklink, Virtual Lead Trainer & Advisor, Softworld A/S

Preparation:

  1. Before the workshop, all participants are asked to make a list of the content (sections, models, texts) that are suitable for being a part of the poster. To use the content at the workshop, it is recommended to gather the content in a PowerPoint file - and prioritize what is essential content, and what is simply “nice to have” content.

2. Book your personal feedback session with one of the instructors (between May 2nd and May 19th).
