This workshop covers the practical skills that make a research presentation more effective: clear structure, strong openings, slide design, keeping your audience engaged, and handling difficult questions. You will receive one-on- one feedback within the session, and will work with your own research throughout, including drafting and testing a 90-second introduction for your next talk.
You will come away with…
- Techniques to build your confidence giving presentations
- A 90-second introduction to your next talk
- Techniques for opening and closing a presentation
- Tips on keeping your audience engaged
- Feedback on how to improve your presentation slides
This workshop is one of seven in RESET’s Communications for Influence programme, running May–October 2026. We intend to repeat these courses in 2027. The programme was developed from research with MCET members identifying the skills that matter most for building research influence.
Each session is practical and immediately applicable. You will work with your own research and leave with something you can act on. After each workshop, participants join a shared peer community for ongoing feedback and collaboration. Complete any four workshops, including the capstone, to earn a RESET Communications Certificate. The workshops are free to all RESET members.
