When it comes to public speaking having a podium or lectern is essential. While typically used interchangeably, a lectern is different than a podium. A lectern is what a speaker stands behind while giving a presentation, while a podium is an elevated stage with a platform to address a crowd. You will find school podiums and portable podiums in just about every classroom, plus wooden podiums in churches.

You will find a variety of attractive lecterns and podiums at School Outfitters, including presentation lecterns, table lecterns, podiums with microphones, portable lecterns and adjustable lecterns.
