Objective: to show the opinions of the teachers of the "Hermanos Ameijeiras" postgraduate center on the use of this modality in the development of a course held in 2015-2016.
Methods: an observational study was carried out in which theoretical methods were used: analysis-synthesis and induction-deduction, and empirical methods: the survey in the form of a questionnaire to explore opinions on general and specific aspects related to the technological and teaching-learning processes, and appreciation of its future viability. For data processing, measures of central tendency and percentage analysis were used.
Results: most of the respondents had no previous experience in the virtual environment.

The main difficulties related to the use of technologies due to connection problems, mainly soluble.
