“One of the best workshops I have ever done, and the presenter never had me wishing I was somewhere else! Great course.“

Would recommend this course to anyone looking to improve their presentation skills – at any level of experience. The hands-on coaching received was invaluable and my team members are now feeling very prepared to get on stage at an upcoming event!

“Before this workshop I knew I needed to improve my storytelling skills, but didn’t know how to do it other than trial and error. But now I have real steps to take and feel like I took leaps ahead in my presentation muscles.“

“This was probably the best workshop I have attended. I really liked using an actual work challenge so that I could really apply my learnings and implement.”

“Duarte Illuminate is a great learning experience! Great tools and novel approaches to inspiring and leading change in a complex environment.”

“This method is like a recipe … add layers to spice up the story so that you create impact. Super helpful and I’m so glad I invested in the time to learn more about this technique. I am already applying it to my next presentation!”

Accessibility first

Great communicators empathize with their audience. And there’s nothing more empathetic than ensuring every audience member can understand and engage with your message, regardless of their ability. ​Our offerings transform the way people communicate. That’s why accessibility is a core tenet of the Duarte Academy®.
