About
NASPGHAN’s DEEP Program – Developing Educators and Expert Presenters is designed to develop a cohort of expert educators who will have the opportunity to improve their presentation skills and feel more confident in their ability to be considered for speaking engagements.
Medical education experts will offer their best practices on prepping for success, effective teaching, knowing your audience and PowerPoint 101. The initial group will then be broken down into small sessions and participants will offer a short presentation and receive and give feedback within the group.
When finished the program, graduates will be able to:
- Create effective learning objectives when preparing a presentation
- Give interactive sessions and improve engagement with the audience
- Know how to foster inclusion, equity and a positive learning climate
- Create impactful and informative PowerPoints
