My Journey to Becoming a PowerPoint World

Champ

Слайд 2The Past
Leading up to this year’s world competition


Слайд 3Freshman year at Dunbar High School, the first Microsoft certified school

in the world.
I was in the technology program, earning certifications.

The Beginnings


Слайд 4When I took the PowerPoint 2010 certification test, I got a

perfect score, 1000.
My proctor told me about the Microsoft Office Specialist World Championship, which tests students on their exceptional knowledge of a certain Office program.

The Realization


Слайд 5A month or so later, I also took the Excel 2010

test, receiving a 975, a near-perfect score.
My proctor recommended going for Excel 2010 instead of PowerPoint 2010, since it was a more challenging program.

The Twist


Слайд 6For months, I trained in Excel 2010, learning the program and

making sure I could do the certification test perfectly.
Come May of 2013, I learned that I qualified for the national competition and if I won that, I would proceed to the worldwide competition.

The Training


Слайд 7Certiport flew all the participants to Park City, Utah for the

competition.
The competition consisted of the certification test and an interview.
I messed up on the certification test and did alright during my interview.
During the award ceremony, I found out I didn’t place.

Nationals


Слайд 8Present
Back to prove myself


Слайд 9My sophomore year, I was determined to return to the competition.
This

year, I would be focusing on PowerPoint 2007.
I trained even harder, making sure I knew ALL the ins and outs of the program and test.

The Training II


Слайд 10Again, I qualified for the national competition.
This time it was in

Atlanta, so we drove since we’re from Florida.
This year, I aced the certification test and felt very confident with my interview.
When awards rolled around, I was nervous, yet confident, but still wasn’t sure how I would place.

They started calling the winners for my category and..

Nationals II


Слайд 11I won first place, advancing to the worldwide competition!
National Champion


Слайд 12Leading up the Microsoft Office Specialist World Competition, Certiport assigned me

a mentor to help me study.
Every day leading up to it, I had an assignment I had to work on.
I was also dealing with interviews, something I was new to.

The Month Before


Слайд 13The competition in Anaheim, California brought 126 competitors from 83 countries.
I

met and became friends with not only Americans, but people from around the world.
The actual competition consisted of us creating a PowerPoint following their guidelines and adjusting it to look like pictures they provided within 50 minutes.
I felt pretty confident after the test, but used up all of my time.

Worldwide


Слайд 14During the award ceremony, nerves were rising as they gave everyone

their certificate of participation.
My category came first and they immediately started calling off names.
3rd…
2nd…
My mom clutched my hand tight, my heart beating like crazy...
1st…

Final Moments


Слайд 15It took me a second to realize they even called my

name, as I hear screams coming from all around me.
I go up on stage, happiest I’ve ever been, legs shaking, knowing I was the first person from the United States to ever win first in my category.

World Champion


Слайд 16The Future
The drive is even stronger


Слайд 17My junior year of high school is starting up and I

know I will be working on qualifying again this coming year, but for Word 2010.
I’ll be pushing myself and others to try for this because I know it can be done and my drive is stronger than ever.

Next Year
