<![CDATA[Academic presentation skills are an important competency that college students must possess. However, many students are still unable to organize presentation media systematically, visually consistently, and in accordance with academic principles. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the Canva workshop implementation in improving the professional academic presentation skills of students at the University of Muhammadiyah Kendari. The study used a quantitative approach with a one-group pretest–posttest design. The research subjects were 40 students selected using a purposive sampling technique. Data were collected through presentation skills tests (pre-test and post-test) and analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics in the form of paired t-tests. The results of the study showed an increase in the average score from 61.50 to 81.30. The t-test results showed a calculated t value of 30.60, which is greater than the t-table (2.02), so there is a significant difference between students' presentation skills before and after attending the Canva workshop. This study concludes that the Canva workshop is effective as a means of developing students' professional academic presentations.
