Online, Video-Based Training Platform Prepares Professionals and Business Owners to Speak Up, Stand Out and Move Forward
NASHVILLE, Tenn., Nov. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Liz Wool, founder and CEO, Public Speaking & Presentation Pros, announces the launch of PSP Academy (SM), an online video-based public speaking and presentation training program for ambitious professionals and business owners. According to a report on career readiness and competencies by the National Association of Colleges and Employers, 96% of employers say communication is essential, yet only 54% rate new graduates as proficient in communication. PSP Academy equips members with the communication and speaking skills to make their expertise more visible to transform their career or business.
Wool is a Certified Master Trainer and Instructional Designer and her skills-based system draws on 30 years of corporate training and presentation experience on stages around the globe. The curriculum follows Wool's proprietary VOICE FRAMEWORK (SM), five pillars that take members from fear to effortless delivery. Accessible from any device, the training combines video-based instruction, exercises, virtual workshop sessions with trainers, reflection and an online community of peers for support and inspiration. The five pillars are the following:
- Vanquish Your Fear: Overcome Public Speaking Anxiety. Replace nerves with steady, grounded confidence. Say yes to the opportunity you used to avoid.
- Organize Your Message: Structure for Impact. Build clear, persuasive presentation structure with aligned messaging. Every presentation lands with logic, flow, connection and purpose.
- Influence with Storytelling: Communicate. Connect. Influence. Turn information into a narrative that moves audiences to act, persuading through story, never pressure.
- Command the Room: Stage Presence and Audience Connection Develop the executive and stage presence that gets noticed. Master your voice, body language, and mindset to hold any room with confidence and authority.
- Exude Effortless Confidence: Ready. Refined. Remarkable. Carry calm, natural confidence into every room. Robust preparation and practice creates mental readiness to deliver with clarity and impact that wins trust and opportunities.
"We know that great speakers aren't born, they're built. I launched PSP Academy to equip professionals and business owners with the skills to become effective and compelling communicators, public speakers and presenters," said Liz Wool, founder and CEO, Public Speaking & Presentation Pros. "Members leave with a complete talk ready for delivery. PSP Academy gets to the root cause of the barriers that have kept their expertise hidden and prepares them for greater visibility and new opportunities."
The PSP Academy digital platform offers self-paced, on demand lessons with worksheets and tools. A new course is released every month as participants progress through the curriculum. Members can begin the same day they enroll, build their speaking skills and revisit lessons until the technique truly sticks. Each course is built on adult learning principles and delivered through audio, video, written instruction, and visuals, with built-in practice exercises and progress tracking.
PSP Academy offers three membership tiers for participants to select the level of support that fits their goals and budget:
- Speaker Foundations – Full access to the PSP Academy, weekly Motivational Monday webinars and monthly live virtual Q&As.
- Speaker Accelerator – Everything in Speaker Foundations, plus monthly live virtual workshops and a group coaching opportunity with Liz Wool.
- Speaker Elite – Everything in Speaker Foundations and Speaker Accelerator, plus in-person training and coaching four times per year in Nashville, Tenn.
