PowerPoint Advanced Demo

You are a policy analyst at the United Nations Climate Policy Division. The Secretary-General has asked you to prepare a 12-slide, four-section briefing that turns real climate data into a clear, professional presentation for world leaders. This advanced PowerPoint course takes you through the whole workflow: planning the deck, applying a consistent theme, building charts and tables from real NASA, NOAA and World Bank data, adding tasteful motion, and finally rehearsing, presenting and exporting your work as a video. Each lesson is a step in the assignment, and the course ends with a final quiz.
