India faces an acute shortage of front-line doctors to fight against Covid-19. Thus, the recruitment of undergraduate medical students into the health care system has been considered by few state governments. This survey was conducted among undergraduate medical students to understand their knowledge, attitude, and preparedness towards the ongoing pandemic. Numerous international and national guidelines came forth. Government Of Gujarat and Plexus MD have launched CCMC [Certificate Course for Management of Covid-19] an online Training program which integrated all the current interim guidance by CDC, WHO, ICMR, MoHFW guidelines for all the medical students and healthcare workers. This study sought to determine the effectiveness of online Covid-19 Training program. This study intended to understand the level of Knowledge Attitude and Practice (KAP) among the Undergraduate students through online questionnaire survey. Questions were adapted from CCMC online training course.  \nMethodology: After taking Ethical approval, data have been collected from undergraduate medical students belonging to three different medical colleges of Gujarat using online Google form survey via what’s app. The online questionnaire used in this study was drafted and validated by experts before hosting it online.  \nResult: Total 414 participants have given consent to participate in this study. Overall score of all the study participants were 46.15% which implied their moderate cognitive domain. This study disclosed that 49.27% study participants were trained in covid-19 management course, rest 50.72% were untrained. On applying Mann Whitney U test, statistically significant difference (P \u003C 0.05) inbetween trained and untrained participants have been demonstrated. Mean attitude 3.87 score revealed positive attitude towards preventive measure and perception in controlling covid-19 infection. On applying Spearman’s correlation test for non-parametric data, positive co-relation of knowledge with attitude and knowledge with practice was found to be significant (P \u003C0.05) .  \nConclusion:This study conveyed the significance of effective of Covid-19 management Training. This study recorded significant (P \u003C0.05) positive co-relation of knowledge with attitude and knowledge with practice. Good level of knowledge and positive attitude towards preventive measures with adherence to standard guidelines provided by state and central government would combat the covid- 19 prevailing situation.  \nKeywords: Covid-19, Undergraduate Medical Students, Knowledge, Attitude, Practice  \nINTRODUCTION  \nFirst case of Covid-19 was reported from Wuhan China, thenthe (SARS-CoV-2) virus spread subsequently to the rest ofthe world.
