N2 - Nominal Group Technique (NGT) methods involve the use of structured activities within groups comprised of purposefully selected stakeholders (nominal groups), with the broad aim of achieving a level of consensus and prioritising information. In this paper, we will report how we facilitated nominal groups, using Microsoft Teams, to prioritise content for a theory-based behaviour change intervention. Our methods are described and underpinned with relevant literature. Practical suggestions are offered based on our experience of using this method.
