Learn how to assess your audience, organize your presentation around your research story, and design slides that help your non-academic audience understand and remember your important ideas. Use these strategies the next time you need to deliver an important presentation to a non-academic audience. \n\nLight snacks will be available at this session.\n\nAccessibility: \n\nGraduate Studies and Postdoctoral Affairs and the University of Waterloo are committed to achieving barrier-free accessibility for persons with disabilities who are visiting, studying, or working at Waterloo.
