With its range of multi-media capabilities, there are many aspects of Microsoft PowerPoint that are highly visual, presenting challenges for assistive software users.  This comprehensive resource package will enable you to create a range of professional presentations and slide shows using only the keyboard.  It is ideal either for beginners or those wishing to update their skills to the more recent version of the program.

More than simply a software manual, the package includes practical exercises that enable users to actively familiarise themselves with shortcut keys and functions from designing simple slides to using multi-media features to create impressive presentations. Complete lists of all keystrokes for both JAWS and ZoomText users make the package an essential long term reference.

Specifically, the resource will enable you to:

• Understand and use the new ‘Ribbon’ system in the most effective and efficient manner.
• Plan and design slides and complete presentations.
• Apply formatting features to make your slides attractive
• Use slide design themes and master slides.
• Insert tables, charts, graphics and hyperlinks into your presentation.
