Exclusive offer for participants giving a talk at <interact> 2018

​

​

 

Speaking about ones work is always a challenge, especially to a general audience and <interact> 2018 is a great opportunity to practice this important skill.

​

For all participants giving a talk at <interact> 2018, we offer a one-day group workshop to actively work on their presentation skills. It will take place one week before the conference.

​

​

The speakers will:

​

• learn techniques for creating an engaging talk

• polish and practice their own presentations

• get direct feedback from the coach and the peers

• learn skills that can be applied to other presentations in the future

​

​

While the participation is not mandatory, it offers a great opportunity to improve your presentation skills for <interact> and for future presentations.

​

If you submitted an abstract for a talk and want to participate in the workshop, please write an email to:
