PPT) FAQs  \nQ: Who designs and builds the Zooming into Membership (ZIM) PPTs?  \nA: The host PTA designs and builds the ZIM slide deck. This host of the ZIM event series can be a Region, District, Council or State PTA.  \nQ: What do I include in a successful Zooming into Membership slide deck?  \nA: Eye-appealing colors, graphics, and photos with only a limited number of words on slides—think bullets, not full sentences. Plan to use the chat box frequently for engagement and build in polls or other fun activities. Successful ZIMs are fast-paced, engaging and fun. Build the deck to support that type of environment.  \nQ: Does National PTA provide a Zooming into Membership PowerPoint Template.  \nA: Yes. National PTA recommends the host PTA use the PowerPoint template available in the Membership Campaign Kit which can be found in the Membership Campaign materials download, October Update folder. It is simple, colorful and ready-to-use. Also see the PowerPoint Sample Slide Deck in this kit for samples and ideas of slide design.  \nQ: What is the ideal length of a ZIM event?  \nA: It is hard to hold an adult’s attention in the virtual world for more than 45 minutes, so plan for 45 minutes. Do not exceed 60 minutes. Keep the slide deck under 30 slides.  \nQ: What is the ideal timing breakdown for a ZIM event?  \nA: Housekeeping/Agenda/Introductions--5 minutes, 3-4 slides.  \nLocal PTA Presentation (including Q&A)– 20 minutes, 3-5 slides.  \nHost PTA/State PTA/National PTA (including Q&A and polling) --10 minutes, 4-5 slides. Membership Awards/Celebrations – 2-5 minutes, 1-2 slides  \nFun Polls/Q&A/Sharing – 5 minutes, 3-4 slides.  \nWrap-Up and Prizes – 2-5 minutes, 3-4 slides.  \nQ: Where do I use PTA logos in the slide deck?  \nA: National PTA recommends that all slides be branded with the host’s PTA logo. Using the logs of all presenters for introductions and closing slides reinforces PTA’s value and connections. Use the logos of all presenters on the slides for each of their PTAs. See the PowerPoint Sample Slide Deck for ideas. Need to create a logo? Easy-to-follow instructions can be found here on the National PTA website.  \nQ: What should be included in the local PTA portion of the presentation?  \nA: Information and demographics about the community the PTA serves, photos from events, graphics used in social media and other promotions, examples of forms and publications, successful membership strategies, and outcomes. The local PTA supporting slides should  \ninclude the local PTA logo. The local PTA presenter should link the PTA’s work to engaging the community and growing membership.  \nQ: What goes into the host’s PTA portion of presentation?  \nA: Host membership resources, tips, and available training. How the host PTA supports and recognizes membership growth efforts. Membership award and incentive information. Recognition of membership achievement of local PTAs served by the host PTA.  \nQ: Should a region, district, or council host PTA invite the state PTA to attend and present?  \nA: Yes. ZIM builds connections among all levels of PTA and demonstrates PTA value at all levels. Invite and introduce state board members who attend and allow the state PTA to provide a brief presentation or welcoming comments to strengthen connections.  \nQ: Should all Zooming into Membership Events include a National PTA Presentation?  \nA: Yes. Again, ZIM builds connections among all levels of PTA and demonstrates PTA value at all levels of PTA. With two weeks’ notice, National PTA will provide slides and a script for each of the slides provided for your ZIM events. Contact the Membership Outreach Team at m[embership@pta.org](embership@pta.org) to request the slides.  \nQ: In addition to National PTA resource slides, how will National PTA support a host PTA Zooming into Membership initiative?  \nA: If given two weeks’ notice, National PTA will work to provide a speaker to present National PTA’s","cbCaiosp2pzOtXOA","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiosp2pzOtXOA","pdf",111241,9,"English","# Zooming into Membership (ZIM) Slide Deck FAQs\n## Design and build responsibility\n## Content and engagement approach\n## National PTA templates and samples\n## Event length and timing breakdown\n## Branding with PTA logos\n## Local PTA presentation requirements\n## Host PTA presentation requirements\n## Inviting state PTA presenters\n## National PTA presentation inclusion\n## National PTA support for host PTAs\n## Presenter scripting and live kickoff","[{\"question\":\"Who designs and builds the Zooming into Membership (ZIM) PPTs?\",\"answer\":\"The host PTA designs and builds the ZIM slide deck.
