The SagePresence Institute: SagePresence launches next-generation presentation training in the Twin Cities
…And makes it affordable for everyone!
SagePresence, which is fast becoming Twin Cities’ professionals’ favorite presentation trainer, is debuting a new program that makes their groundbreaking method available to everyone—on any budget, on any time schedule—and provides ongoing support to help it stick.
“Peoples’ response to our training has been amazing,” says SagePresence director-in-residence Dean Hyers. “As 2008 progressed, we started hearing some themes with respect to their preferences and how we might optimize our presentation training for them.”
As a result, in 2009, SagePresence is introducing the SagePresence Institute.
At the heart of the SagePresence Institute is the Confident Presenter Series. The series covers the entire SagePresence method for becoming a confident, authentic, and influential presenter in three new and comprehensive modules that leverage Hollywood techniques to teach participants:
“The big win for participants is that, with the Confident Presenter Series, we can spend the time to explain the concepts and pay more individualized attention to participants to really cement the learning,” explains SagePresence curriculum expert Pete Machalek, M.A.
What Machalek means is that the Confident Presenter series module will be offered on a monthly basis, in four-hour blocks. This allows for smaller class sizes and an easier learning pace in order to ensure participants clearly grasp the method and can apply it outside the classroom setting.
“But even that wasn’t enough for us,” adds SagePresence screenwriter-in-residence Bill True. “Considering these extraordinary times, we wanted to make certain people got support along the way—after the training was done—so that it brought them real and tangible results out ‘in the wild.’”
In response, the SagePresence Institute is offering a Total Support Package to participants who sign up for the complete Confident Presenter Series. In addition to receiving the complete presentation training, participants who sign up for the Package will also be able to take advantage of SagePresence’s new monthly Sage Advice Teleseminars and Roundtable meetings, which are designed to address questions about applying SagePresence principles in practice and gain insight through sharing experiences with other graduates in a collaborative environment.
“’How do we make the training stick?’ is a critical question for us,” Hyers points out. “The Total Support Package makes that happen. And with our new Pay-As-You-Go Plan, it does so in a way that anyone’s budget can handle.”
The Pay-As-You-Go Plan allows participants to spread the cost of the Total Support Package over twelve monthly payments of only $47.50.
“It’s basically the cost of a business lunch,” asserts True. “For the cost of a business lunch a month, you can have all the training and support you need to be a confident, compelling, and dynamic presenter.”
