PowerPoint 365 for Beginners

Work in the corporate or academic worlds long enough and at some point you’ll likely be asked to give a presentation. And most of the time the program you’ll be expected to use is Microsoft PowerPoint.

This book is an introductory guide to how to use PowerPoint 365 as it existed in October 2023. Since it’s a constantly evolving product it might have shifted a bit since then, but the basics generally stay the same, so when you finish reading this book you should have the ability to create, present, and print a basic PowerPoint presentation.

If you want to get fancier then you can continue with or skip right to Intermediate PowerPoint 365, which covers more advanced topics like tables, SmartArt, and charts.

So if you’re ready to learn the basics of PowerPoint, what are you waiting for? Let’s get started.
