A planning worksheet is provided. Session two focuses on putting the presentation together; it covers the writing stage from outline to presentation, conclusions and introductions, and visual aids. Topics in the third session are as follows: the delivery stage, practicing the presentation, preparation, and keys to a strong presentation.
