The institutions of higher health education have faced a major challenge with the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic. This situation caused a rupture of the traditional training models, characterized by the presence in the classroom, forcing to move towards distance education, known in this situation as remote emergency education. This process of academic disruption determined actions to achieve, even under these conditions, the continuity of the school year, structuring them in two successive stages: the first, with predominance of the principle of non-interaction deposit (shelving or repository), and the second with predominance of the principle of interaction (true virtual space of exchange).
