ABSTRACT
Higher Education institutions around the world were affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The extension of social distancing measures requires an adaptation from the on-site to the remote teaching format. This demands planning, as well as taking into account the conditions of both teachers and students. In this article, we propose guidelines to lead the work of university managers when assessing the difficulties and restrictions imposed by the emergency situation caused by the pandemic, as well as dealing with them, in order to promote viable and safe working and pedagogical conditions to teachers and students. Such guidelines are based on a Higher Education conception oriented to the development of professional performance (as opposed to the transmission of educational content). They are, also, based on variables that interfere in the educational process.
