    • 1. Create and manage presentations

      • Objective 1. Create and manage presentations

        The skills tested in this section of the Microsoft Office Specialist exam for Microsoft PowerPoint 2016 relate to creating and managing presentations and slides, rather than slide content. 

        You can create PowerPoint presentations from scratch or from a template, or by importing a list of slide titles and content from another file. If you frequently create presentations for a specific purpose, you can efficiently maintain consistent layout and formatting of slides, handouts, and notes by using masters. Traditionally, presentations are presented electronically as slideshows. You can configure a slideshow that you will present, or for someone else to play locally or online. You can also print presentations and their supporting materials. This chapter guides you in studying ways of creating and displaying presentations; creating and managing slides; printing presentation content, speaker notes and slide handouts; and configuring and presenting slide shows.
