Will your courses help me overcome my fear of public speaking?

Yes, one of the primary reasons many people attend our training workshops is to overcome their fear of delivering a presentation. To their amazement, almost without exception, these same people can hardly believe the transformation that occurs by the end of the workshop.  They feel more confident, and much more able to effectively deliver a presentation, whether to a potential client, to report on a business project back at work or to address the public.

Where are your workshops held?

While many of our Open Enrollment workshops are conducted on location here in Denver, we also conduct these same workshops across the country.  You can find currently scheduled public workshops on our Events page.If you don’t see a workshop currently scheduled in your area, Let Us Know and we will do our best to organize a workshop near you as soon as possible.  We’ll also go one step further, and reward you with a $100 incentive for each additional participant you refer to us in your area.

Which of your courses is best for me?

While all of our courses are designed to improve your overall communications skills, the first step is to identify the specific areas in which you have the greatest need to further develop your talents.  View our courses to determine which seems appropriate for you, and Contact Us, or call (800) 403-6598 and personally speak with an account executive, so we can determine how Effective Presentations can best meet your training objectives.

Do you offer on-site company training?

How long before the workshop begins can I register?

You can register for our Open Enrollment workshops as soon as they are posted on our Events page, and at any time up to one day prior to the workshop.  We recommend booking as early as possible, as class size is limited to 10 participants, and previous Open Enrollment workshops have literally been sold out within days of appearing on our website.

We will also email you a formal Workshop Confirmation, including the date, location, and other relevant details, prior your workshop.

What if I register for a workshop, and am unable to attend?

If you register for one of our workshops and are unable to attend, we will be happy to accommodate you in a future workshop or you also have the option of switching the registration to another person.  If you are unable to attend, or will be sending someone else in your place, we ask that you give us at least 48 hours prior notice so that we can make the appropriate adjustments. If you will be unable to transfer to a future workshop, and cannot send someone in your place and would like a refund, we require at least 5 business days’ notice.   If you fail to attend without prior notice, you will be liable for the workshop tuition.
