Stephen Hinds Business Intellect	This Manifesto recognises that e-Learning is not merely an extension of the classroom. Advances in technology and development in business practices, have placed e-Learning in the vanguard of personnel development. This however, is entirely dependent on the calibre of material and support that is provided. This Manifesto sets out a clear and concise set of standards and practices that, when adhered to, will maintain and extend the value of e-Learning
Chris Heron People Communicate Ltd	I have believed what is so eloquently and accurately espoused in the manifesto for years that’s why I am happy to sign this manifesto.

Eleanor Mante Trinity Mirror Plc	I am a certified instructional designer who is dedicated to the creation of meaningful and memorable e-learning experiences to benefit learners, SMEs, and reviewers of e-learning content everywhere.
Bruce Barkis BGB Advanced Resources, LLC	As a serious eLearning professional, I embrace these principles. These are all consistent with what our business partners — internal and external — and the learners require for us to be essential, relevant and valued. Several points especially resonate with me. “Spaced Practice” is a reminder that learning is a process not an event. mLearning enables learners to achieve a level of mastery at their convenience. #15 PS is a reminder that learning need not look like learning but rather seemlessly integrate into the performers’ work. #22 Respect is a reminder we’re collaborating with fellow adults; to collaborate, not condescend.
Eraclito de Souza Argolo Universidade Federal do Maranhão	I support this initiative as a researcher interested in this field of human knowledge.

Carol Kristensen Nationwide Insurance	A commitment to good e-learning and good use of e-learning is so important to our success and credibility as learning professionals. We need to be focused on performance — helping people do their jobs better to they and their employers are more successful — and on learners. It’s not about making our jobs as instructional designers or instructors easier. It’s about making learners more successful. And sometimes that doesn’t include formal training. That’s OK. When is use our training tools well everyone benefits.

Rita Garcia	Learning is a path that makes us better people and better professionals. Therefore, it should be meaningful, focused on the learners, and on what helps them achieve a better performance.
