    ObjectiveTo determine the feedback of supervisors regarding role of e-logbook in monitoring of training, strengthening supervisor-supervisee relationship and improving overall environment of postgraduate training at College of Physicians and Surgeons Pakistan (CPSP).Study DesignCross-sectional survey.Place And Duration Of StudyCollege of Physicians and Surgeons Pakistan (CPSP) from July to December, 2017.MethodologyAll registered supervisors of CPSP who were monitoring training and had minimum three years postfellowship experience were included. Non-probability consecutive sampling technique was employed. HTML-based questionnaires were sent through e-log. Likert scale was used to rate statements about e-logbook, where "1" was "strongly disagree" and "5" denoted "strongly agree". The data were entered in SPSS version 21 and analysed through its statistical package.ResultsA total of 816 supervisors responded to the questionnaires (response rate of 65%). Out of these, 74.3% were males and 25.7% were females with mean age of 52.8 +6.9 years. Majority of the supervisors agreed (62%) or strongly agreed (10%) that e-logbook has helped to improve the supervisor-supervisee relationship. More than half (60%) of the supervisors agreed, whereas some (19.3%) strongly agreed that e-logbook is a better monitoring tool than conventional logbook. The supervisors believed that overall training environment has improved with the introduction of e-log system (51% agreed and 9% strongly agreed). The age of supervisors and duration of supervisorship had no statistically significant effect on the responses of supervisors to various statements about e-logbook.ConclusionSupervisors perceive electronic logbooks as a useful medium for training monitoring and improvement of the relationship between supervisors and their residents. They have shown wide acceptability to the e-log system. E-log should continue as the primary monitoring system of the training programmes of CPSP.
