The present survey evaluates participants’ perceptions of the webinar on toxicology (WebT), considering the recent trends and future requirements. Methods- The present survey is conducted as a cross-sectional study comprising web-based 13-questions, conducted by the Department of Forensic Medicine & Toxicology, Kalinga Institute of Medical Sciences, Bhubaneswar on, 18th December 2021. After the WebT, participants were identified through the WhatsApp number and Email Ids provided during registration. Results: 103 participants responded with a response rate of 39.54%. The propelling factor for attending WebT was scientific content (33%), followed by an award of CME credit points. Among the participants, 48% agreed that WebT could replace traditional CMEs, whereas 20% were at the end of disagreement. About 10% of participants described connectivity and audio quality issues as a significant bottleneck. Conclusion: Web T provides safety, besides the convenience of saving work-time. Effectiveness and acceptance are encouraging ad can further be improved by choosing recently trending Web T topics, awarding Credit points and educating participants to counter the possible technical glitches
