PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Your company has won a state contract to provide low-cost solar energy kits through a technology transfer program. You will introduce your company’s products to the governor and heads of several state agencies to prepare them for the media outreach events.
Your goal is to briefly outline the products and services of Off-Grid Solar Solutions by taking advantage of the graphics and features in PowerPoint.
GETTING STARTED
Download the following file from the SAM website:
· IL_PPT2013_CS_UA-D_P1a_FirstLastName_1.pptx
Open the file you just downloaded and save it with the name:
· IL_PPT2013_CS_UA-D_P1a_FirstLastName_2.pptx
· Hint: If you do not see the .pptx file extension in the Save file dialog box, do not type it. PowerPoint will add the file extension for you automatically.
To complete this Project, you will also need to download and save the following support files from the SAM website:
· support_IL_P13_CS_UA-D_P1a_sun.png
· support_IL_P13_CS_UA-D_P1a_solarkits.docx
· Hint: Opening an image may alter its file size. If you open an image support file, delete the file and download a new copy from the SAM website.
With the file IL_PPT2013_CS_UA-D_P1a_FirstLastName_2.pptx still open, ensure that your first and last name is displayed in the presenter notes on Slide 1. If the presenter notes do not display your name, delete the file and download a new copy from the SAM website.
