Preparing PowerPoint Slideshows

Quick Tips

• Effective August 15, 2020, all program materials submitted to LSO CPD are required to be in compliance with the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA), 2005. When submitting your PowerPoint slideshows, please ensure they meet AODA standards
• PowerPoint slides are for presentation purposes only. They are made available for registrants to download but are not published in program materials
• Create your PowerPoint slideshow in a 16 x 9 aspect ratio. This is optimal for the Learning Centre
• Do not use animations, transitions, and on-click commands (e.g., fly-ins). The webcast only captures static images
• Do not include hidden slides as this function is not compatible with our system
• Delete non-required slides from the file before submission
• Slides must be received 2 business days before the program to allow for testing. They will be posted to the webcast server for registrants to download
• Do not include any video or audio in PowerPoints. Submit these as separate items with instructions when to play
• Do not include any hyperlinks to websites
• Do not include copyrighted materials
• Include only one concept on each slide
