The aim of this work is to reflect on how virtual audits of international accreditations of university programs in Engineering, Informatics and Chemistry managed by the National Agency for Quality Assessment and Accreditation (ANECA), in collaboration with IIE, CCII, CONCITI, and RSEQ, are dealt with, within the International Quality Labels Program (SIC), which awards international labels of Engineering, Informatics and Chemistry to those programs that show compliance with the evaluation criteria established by the European agencies ENAEE, EQANIE, and ECTN, respectively, based on learning outcomes selected by academics and professionals from different countries. Materials and Methods: The data used in this study have been obtained from the evaluations carried out by ANECA during the 2020 call. Results and discussion: 55 training programs, distributed in 23 Spanish universities and one Mexican, have been completely evaluated by the virtual modality during the 2020 call, due to the pandemic caused by COVID-19. Until then, these evaluations were carried out using the face-to-face mode.
