Frequently asked questions

How long does the PowerPoint Basics course take?
The PowerPoint Basics course takes one day and is given in the open learning format. You work at your own pace on assignments, with an experienced trainer beside you for explanation and immediate feedback. At the start you discuss your starting level and learning objectives together, so that you practise specifically the parts that matter to you.
Do I need prior knowledge for the PowerPoint Basics course?
No, you do not need any prior knowledge of PowerPoint for the PowerPoint Basics course. You start from the basics and build up your skills step by step. It is useful, however, if you can work comfortably with Windows and are familiar with standard mouse and keyboard operations. The trainer adjusts the pace and the topics to your level, so that you learn exactly what you need.
Which version of PowerPoint will I learn during the PowerPoint Basics course?
You learn PowerPoint in the version you use yourself. When booking, you indicate which version is installed on your workstation. The planners make sure you receive the course material that matches that version, so everything you learn can be applied straight away. Do you work with Microsoft 365? Then you can optionally also get acquainted with Copilot in PowerPoint.
Does the PowerPoint Basics course also cover Copilot for PowerPoint?
Yes, Copilot for PowerPoint is covered optionally in this course. Indicate when you book that you would like to spend time on this, and the trainer will tailor the content accordingly. You will learn how to use Copilot to quickly generate a first outline for a presentation, have slides completed and receive suggestions for formatting and imagery.
Do I receive a certificate after the PowerPoint Basics course?
Yes, on completion of the PowerPoint Basics course you will receive a certificate of participation. This certificate confirms that you have attended the course and have mastered the main features of PowerPoint. You can add it to your CV or LinkedIn profile to demonstrate your presentation software skills to employers and clients.
Can I also take the PowerPoint Basics course in-company?
Yes, the PowerPoint Basics course is also available in-company. You then receive a tailored course at your own workplace, geared to the level and requirements of your team. Handy if several colleagues want to learn to work with PowerPoint at the same time. You can bring in your own practical examples, so that the course ties in directly with your day-to-day work. Request a quote via the course page.
Which type of employee is the PowerPoint Basics course suitable for?
The PowerPoint Basics course is suitable for anyone who has to create presentations in their work but has little experience with PowerPoint. Think of employees who have to explain a project internally, teachers who want to support their teaching material visually, entrepreneurs who want to pitch their product or interns presenting their final report. No prior knowledge of PowerPoint is required, but basic knowledge of Windows is. The course focuses on functional application, not on graphic design. Do you already have experience building slides, and inserting animations and charts? Then the follow-up PowerPoint Advanced course is a better fit. Not sure about your level? The trainer will discuss your starting level at the beginning of the day and tailor the exercises accordingly.
What is the difference between taking the PowerPoint Basics course and teaching yourself through online tutorials?
Self-study via YouTube or online tutorials works fine if you want to look up individual functions, but you miss the structure and the immediate feedback. In the PowerPoint Basics course at Learnit you work in an open learning format with an experienced trainer who discusses your starting level and tailors the material to what you need in practice. You practise with your own work examples and get immediate answers to questions that a tutorial leaves unanswered. You not only learn individual buttons, but build a complete presentation in one day, with text, charts, illustrations, animations and notes pages. The result: after one day you can produce a polished presentation independently, instead of puzzling over separate videos for weeks.
