Microsoft recommends candidates review the exam guide and practice the skills listed before attempting the authorized exam.
These exams vary by software version. Pass one exam to earn MOS PowerPoint certification.
MO-300: PowerPoint Associate (PowerPoint 365 / 2019)
77-729: PowerPoint 2016
Microsoft Office Specialist (MOS) certification exams are performance-based for improved testing of a candidate's knowledge, skills, and abilities using the programs. To maintain integrity, exam content is subject to change at any time without prior notice and at the sole discretion of Microsoft. As such, training may not cover all exam topics. It is recommended that you review the exam guide and practice the skills listed before attempting the authorized exam.
MOS exams are administered by Certiport. A test from home option is available for current ONLC students. Qualified ONLC students should complete the Home Exam request form to schedule an at home exam (other restrictions and requirements may apply). Those who prefer a testing location and non-ONLC students should visit Certiport's list of locations to schedule a MOS exam.
Microsoft PowerPoint is relatively easy to learn, especially for beginners. Its user-friendly interface and built-in templates make it accessible even if you have little experience with design or presentation tools. However, mastering advanced features like animations, custom slide designs, and interactive elements may require additional practice or professional training. Enrolling in a PowerPoint training course can help you quickly build confidence and develop advanced skills.
For basic skills, you can start creating simple presentations in just a few hours. However, mastering PowerPoint's advanced features, such as custom templates, transitions, and multimedia integrations, can take several days or weeks depending on your dedication. A structured PowerPoint training program can significantly reduce your learning time by providing focused lessons and hands-on practice.
You can learn Microsoft PowerPoint for free through several online resources:
The best way to learn Microsoft PowerPoint is through a combination of hands-on practice and structured training. Here are some effective approaches:
PowerPoint skills are essential in a wide range of roles, including:
Professionals should learn PowerPoint to effectively communicate ideas, data, and strategies. A well-designed PowerPoint presentation can engage audiences, simplify complex information, and leave a lasting impression. Training in PowerPoint helps professionals:
Absolutely! PowerPoint training focuses on techniques for creating compelling business presentations, including:
PowerPoint Versions: 365 / 2019 / 2016
The difference between versions is mostly a matter of how you're accessing the software. PowerPoint 365 software is accessed via the cloud. You pay a monthly subscription to use the software, and since it isn't installed on your device, you'll get software updates as they happen. On the other hand, PowerPoint 2019 / 2016 and earlier PC software versions are purchased outright and installed directly on to your computer (aka "on-premise").
PowerPoint features and functions are essentially the same no matter how you're accessing the software (cloud or on-premise). As such, students with PowerPoint 365, 2019 and 2016 can attend the same training classes without change.
