The novel coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) has catalyzed the development of online educational resources.

Webinars provide opportunities for convenient distance-learning and provision of expert lectures, while reducing the financial and practical costs of attending conferences.

This cross-sectional survey aims to collect subjective opinion on the usefulness of webinars as an educational platform compared to face-to-face interactions, and whether surgeons and surgeons-in-training want webinars to remain a permanent platform for training and development in the future.

A free-to-attend online series of international expert lectures on a range of plastic surgery topics was delivered.

Attendees were invited to anonymously complete a survey on attitudes towards webinars as an educational platform over a 2-week period.
