Virtual communication is no longer a temporary substitute—it’s a professional standard.
Whether you're leading a team call, delivering clinical data, or engaging external stakeholders, virtual presentations require sharper skills, tighter preparation, and stronger delivery than ever before.

This module focuses on strategies to elevate how you show up on screen, how you use virtual platforms more effectively, and how you create real engagement in a virtual environment that often encourages passivity.

We cover the fundamentals—like webcam setup, lighting, and sound—but go deeper into the nuances that separate strong virtual presenters from forgettable ones. Because today, virtual presence is real presence.

Skills covered include:

• Best practices for optimizing your virtual platform (Zoom, Teams, etc.)

• Correct camera positioning for a more natural, trustworthy connection

• Lighting and audio tips to keep the focus on your message

• Using visual aids strategically to boost attention and retention

• Platform engagement tools that are worth using—and ones to skip

• Camera-on culture: how to encourage participation without forcing

• Tips for maintaining eye contact with your audience through the camera

• The role of micro-interactivity: polls, reactions, chat prompts

• How to ask better questions to overcome awkward silence

• Proactive strategies for calling on participants without creating discomfort

• How to get a disengaged session back on track with tact

• Ways to professionally manage disagreement in a virtual setting
