With the COVID-19 pandemic, changes were made in higher education institutions as in other sectors, and the online teaching model was started to be used for the first time. This situation has been a new experience for both students and trainers in courses such as midwifery, where both theory and practice are given together. The third-year midwifery students closest to graduating from the Faculty of Health Sciences participated in the study. In the individual and in-depth interviews, the themes of 'A new learning experience, reluctance to learn new information, inadequacy in professional skills, lack of self-confidence, not being able to join a multidisciplinary team, anxiety about future professional life' were determined. During the pandemic, students have had both positive and negative experiences. In addition, online education negatively affected the psychomotor skill development of students. It is recommended that institutions providing education to midwifery students be aware of the difficulties experienced and follow different methods for psychomor skills training.
