Content Tips & Recommendations §Create a title slide that relates to the presentation content. §Avoid using a single bullet or more than five bullets per slide. §Keep charts simple. §Use clip art that relates to the content and does not distract from the message. §Provide a recommendation, summary or transition on your final slide/s.

Format Tips & Recommendations §Use large fonts – NO SMALLER THAN 18 POINT. §Avoid long lines of text. §Keep the background simple. Make sure the text can be seen clearly. §Maintain a consistent color scheme throughout the presentation. §Use consistent slide transitions.
