Presentation Skills
Presentation skills are another tool the MPA program requires. In every course at least one presentation is given. It usually happens at the end of the semester when you have gained enough confidence to put yourself in front of your peers for examination of your product. It is said that getting up and speaking in front of people is the hardest thing to do. I agree. But like anything else, the more you practice the better and more comfortable you become. I suppose I should be comfortable with it by the end of the program, but I still find it difficult to speak in public. The one thing I do know the more familiar with a subject I am, the less anxiety I feel. One gets plenty of practice with presenting in the program.
