	by S.B.	Study Manager I saw some benefit of consenting patients using e-consents (ie, audio features as well as pictures), but still wasn't convinced it was much better then consenting patients using hardcopy consent.
	by J.T.	Head of Patient Recruitment A little frustrating at the beginning, had to hold on the line for 2-3mins before being spoken to by an operator, then had to answer a lot of questions before being placed in conference. Content was excellent, very relevant to my needs. Slides were a little confusing, speakers didn't state often enough which slide they were on, and some slides were not in the right place. They tended to jump about in what they were saying, so referneces were being made to future slides, and so I found myself going back and forth to find where we were at. However, that said, the material was useful.
	by J.W.	Associate Director, Training Consensus in our group audience is that the discussion took a little longer than necessary and the pace was a little slow.
	by M.B.	Regional Trainer I find the idea of an eICF to be a good one, and learned some great tips for future studies. The presentation was well thought out and the accompanying slides were appropriate for each topic discussed. I agree that additional audio/video/visual, etc. tools would enhance the subject's comprehension of the ICF. My only negative comment would be that during the Q & A session, it seemed to be more of a sales conference than a seminar.
