The COVID-19 pandemic has caused an unprecedented crisis in all socioeconomic areas, including education. Throughout the world, universities have been forced to shift their traditional teaching techniques towards implementing a variety of emergency remote teaching approaches. This thesis aims to determine the effect that the pandemic-driven remote education has had on the development of generic skills in Universidad de la Costa - CUC. This study’s dataset comprised the generic skills scores during the 2018-2020 period. This research used an exploratory analysis, a differential analysis (between the No COVID vs. COVID scenarios), and a comparative correlation analysis. The results showed that the skillwise scores increased significantly during the COVID scenario, indicating that the overall generic skills were strengthened. Such enhancements could be attributed to the strategies designed and implemented by Universidad de la costa to tackle the pandemic-driven crisis, demonstrating that the crisis can be overcome with correct and opportune measures.
