Feedback is already coming in, which is good. Keep it coming ... and remember to fill out each course's survey. If you didn't like the content or speaker, say so there. We use that data when putting together next year's show.
The issue the person mentions below has to do with the way COPE changed their quiz requirement for live CE -- they dropped it, so we had to alter the software to accommodate this regualatory change while the system was still running (instead of taking our sweet time working on stuff in the off season.) Fortunately it worked, but it necessitated me making that instructional video at night on saturday!
The other bit of fun is that we had 4,000 registrants, and some classes had over 1,000 people simultaneously... it was unexpected and a bit of a shocker for us! (you could almost feel the hardware writhing in pain.)

"Thank you personally for all of your prompt responses & professional care to 1st time doctors like myself to join your fantastic webinar.
Because I recruited 7 other ODs to join this weekend event, I apologize for my various questions throughout to assist myself & my colleagues. You were both responsive & knowledgeable.
We were impressed with how you even responded with changing from Quiz to Attendance through immediate video instructions to demystify online learning for many of us.
My feedback from my doctors were “Wow, I would do this online learning anytime” to “Why didn’t you tell me about this course sooner to tell my classmates”...to “ I learned so much!” And more.
I have been in practice over 20+ years in ophthalmology/optometry & have attended numerous hours of CE throughout the years from MDs/ODs. The majority of your lecturers were not only knowledgeable, clear in their 45-50 topics of expertise, gave real life examples in which we can see the slides to follow along, responded to questions right away, and top notch well respected colleagues as well.
I commend you & the organization for putting this together to help so many ODs in time of need but more importantly expand our knowledge in term of individualized studied where we have freedom to choose classes of our needs.
Your exhibit hall sponsored choices are great as well. You have made it simple & chose great sponsors too. Kuddos to Hank for being very resourceful & helpful through this process for 1st timers like me.
My husband & I help clients grow & license their businesses using various marketing strategies. For what you got, personally I think your weekend seminar can be higher price and still be worth every penny! "
