This is a great course with lots of helpful information. If you are really oriented to the presentation topic, I would strongly recommend it. Lots of concrete advices, supported by scientific researches. Very straightforward explanation, understandable even for people with English as a 2nd language.

On the other hand, if you are more oriented in the topic how to communicate with other person (presentation, or SW), I would recommend Susan's course "Design for Engagement - How to Design So People Take Action" more. Lots of information are doubled in these two courses. In my opinion, they are explained a little better in the "Design for Engagement..." course.

For every presenter, one of Susan's course is a must. I wish this even as a audience of many presentations.

I have had the opportunity to present many times to different size groups, but these tips were so very good for me to consider as I prepare for my next Keynote.
Simple, effective, and logical, I really enjoyed the course!
