When educators develop and present programs, we don’t do it to display our PowerPoint skills or to show off the speaking tips we’ve gleaned from the latest TED talk. True educators build and deliver programs to inspire and enable their audiences to help move emergency services forward. So where do so many go wrong? This program isn't about PowerPoint tips and tricks (although some are included). Rather, it demonstrates effective communications and message delivery techniques, tools for successful student / attendee engagement, and presentation of a compelling "call to action" designed to motivate attendees to effect positive change in the way that we work for, care for and protect our communities.

25. TAKE HOME
(What they MUST know):
Who needs to know it?
Where are they taking it?
For themselves.
For Their colleagues.
For their boss.
What do they need to know.

26. TAKE HOME
(What they MUST know):

(SPECIFIC GOALS):

31. CHALLENGE the World presents
“The cards are stacked against our (HERO)”
Why isn’t the world already as it should be?
Current “flawed solution” to the CHALLENGE:
Why is this solution flawed?
Why is this solution still being used?

32. PATH from world as is to world as should be
“But they’ll go from (PROBLEM) to (GOAL)”
Steps (however many are needed):
1) Core knowledge (A&P, Fundamentals, etc.)

3) and so on
What is at stake if we do not walk the path?

• Summary

CONTRAST & CALL TO ACTION
“They will”

37. There must be clear contrast from when they walk in
to when they leave.
Enter as someone who WANTS to change the world.
Leave as someone who CAN & WILL change the world
Now you CAN and WILL (GOAL) through (PATH):

38. Call To Action

Through (PATH)
By Doing
(Calls to action specific to each category of audience):
With (SUPPORT)
