Covid-19 has made many universities turn to virtual education, although they do not have it conceived within their educational model. The objective of this research is to evaluate the results achieved in the virtual course of Infotechnology of the Master in Management, of the University of Granma, taught in times of pandemic. A quantitative approach was used, an exploratory-descriptive investigation, with a non-experimental design. The sample consisted of 24 students. The main results highlight an adequate technological scenario that allows you to connect and carry out your investigative activities. 95.83% of the subjects report having received support from the facilitators from a technical and academic point of view. The Chi square test confirms that the quality of the course positively influences the level of acquisition of new knowledge and skills in the search and management of information, by students. It is concluded that the study developed allowed to show the effectiveness of the course in the presence of the health situation, being able to determine that it is feasible to continue with the online training actions of the master's degree.
