This article describes the field experience with Social Work professionals in training in the sixth and seventh semester of a Social Work degree at the Corporación Universitaria del Caribe, CECAR. As one of the social projection strategies of the academic program, the students implemented a group social work experience virtually with adolescents from educational institutions located in the departments of Sucre and Bolivar, Colombia. The exercise was aimed at giving social support to adolescents in times of COVID-19, and lasted approximately four months between planning and completion. From this practical exercise, the Social Work students developed skills and competencies related to teamwork, creativity, innovation, and frustration control. Finally, the reflections that emerged from this practical experience are presented, considering 4 fundamental elements: connectivity, participation, interaction, and creativity.
