Birmingham and Midland Institute 

Morning session 10.00-12.45:  Perfecting your Presentations 

(Facilitator: Margaret Hawkins, Brave New World Consulting.  CIPD

Anyone can learn, or improve on, this indispensable skill. So if you would 
like to:

Appreciate the differences between oral and written communication and 
between communicating with groups and individuals.
Understand the stages of the communication cycle and their importance for 
presentations.
Be able to structure a presentation for a particular purpose and audience.
Be aware of key techniques for successful delivery.
This session is for you!


Afternoon session 13.30-1500:  From Powerpoint to Academic Print

(Facilitator: Dr Graham Walton, Service Development Manager, Loughborough 
University Library and currently Editor of Health Information and 
Libraries journal)

This session will dispel the myth that you have nothing worth writing on 
and show how academic articles can be developed from practice. 
 
At the end of the session, delegates will:

Understand the potential to develop a presentation into a published 
article.
Appreciate the different, progressive stages in writing an article for 
publication from a presentation.
Know the key factors that contribute to quality published articles.
Feel confident to revise presentations for submission for wider 
publication.

Originally presented at the HLG Eastbourne conference but back by popular 
demand!
