Hi Kristin,
Great first webinar.
A suggestion : When attending live Webinar, would be interesting to be able to rate them just after webinar is complete.Now we need to wait for the webinar to be On-Demand Webinar.

PS reference to to book and book website should be added to the webinar page

Thanks
