Workshop - How to own the Zoom: the art of brilliant speaking online

Learn how to connect to others and speak authoritatively - even when you're addressing a screen

Computing's publisher, Incisive Media, is hosting an upcoming interactive workshop: ‘How to Own the Zoom: The Art of Brilliant Speaking Online'. The workshop will take place over Zoom on Tuesday 17th November between 14:00 and 15:30, and will be hosted by stand-up comedian Viv Groskop.

How to Own the Zoom: The Art of Brilliant Speaking Online is a 90-minute interactive workshop that will cover everything you ever wanted to know about video-conferencing, no matter the platform. How can we come across how we want to on screen? How can you feel connected to others when you can't be in the same room as them? Presented by Viv Groskop, stand-up comedian and host of How to Own the Room podcast, this session will include plenty of opportunity to ask questions and trouble-shoot problems.

Early bird discount tickets costing £39+VAT are available until 6 November. Full price tickets to the event cost £49+VAT.
