Presentation Templates
We’ve created presentation slide templates for you to use in your PowerPoint or Keynote presentation.
While you don’t have to use them for every slide, we do ask that at least 75% of your slides use these templates. This is especially important for use in our Foundations Video Library for those sessions that are being recorded.
Please note that you may have to make a copy (under the File menu) in order to have the blank templates for your use.
