It is inevitable. Attendees of our Podium Master Programs will never view human interaction or leadership communications the same way again. You will learn techniques you can use immediately, and you will never be able to look at someone else's presentation and leadership skills the same way, ever again. You will demand more from yourself and from your peers, and the techniques you learn will help you sell more, communicate better with clients, inspire co-workers, patients and juries, develop stronger teams, and before you know it, will improve the bottom line. All this from a Podium Master Program.

SPEAKER TRAINING CAMPS:
Want to become the best possible presenter in the shortest possible time?  Try one of our Podium Master Speaker Training Camps. Total immersion, suitably intense, appropriately entertaining and the most learning you can get for the time and money.  For groups of 10 or more, we recommend a Two-Day Training Camp, between 5 and 10 can be accomplished in One and a Half Days, and under 5 in One-Day. Participants with a passing grade receive Level IV Podium Master Certification (CPM).  Available to the public through American Speaker * , or on-site for your private group anywhere in the world by contacting Podium Master.

NEW!!! TEAM-BUILDING TRAINING CAMPS (through our affiliate Parnassus Institute):
Tired of the same old theatre games and lame debriefings you get from most Team-Building workshops?  Then you're going to LOVE our new Podium Master Team-Building Training Camp! We begin by explaining in detail the definitive Four-Step Process that every successful team inevitably follows, then provide a series of projects specifically designed to hammer home that Process in a progressive way, one step at a time, until they are fully ingrained in each participant.  This kind of linear training insures that the valuable information learned during our Camp is applied immediately and effectively upon your return to work.  NO touchy-feely, NO theatre games, NO blindfolds, NO silly trust exercises, and NO lame debriefings.  Just Pure Professional Process for your Project and your Team. 
 
WORKSHOPS:
Workshops come in One-Day or Half-Day sessions.  Hands-on training includes a preliminary introduction into the Podium Master methods, an evaluation of each participant to discover their current skill level, and specific instructions on how to dramatically improve those communication techniques in both private and public speaking venues.  Perfect for polishing up the skills of already highly accomplished speakers.

SEMINARS/KEYNOTE SPEECHES:
Seminars are when we do all the talking, and everyone else enjoys while they learn.  Highly informative, delightfully entertaining and, naturally, low pressure for the listener, we pack as much punch as possible into whatever time you want us to fill, be it five minutes or five hours.  Perfect for plenary sessions, keynote or supplementary speeches, training sessions, and any other meeting or convention application that you might have.

CONTINUING EDUCATION:
Whether it's legal, medical, association or corporate, our programs can be easily certified (and already have been in many areas), and fill a niche that's important in every industry.  After all, we ALL have to communicate effectively to be successful, and in some industries, it's the difference between life or death, happy customers or lawsuits, high insurance premiums or low.  Let us know your Continuing Education needs and we tailor a program specifically to satisfy those needs.
