The Pandemic situation revealed that online teaching efficacy levels of pre-service teachers needed special attention through ICT-based training programs that cater to the real classroom needs of learners. The previous research focused on designing frameworks for the successful implementation of online teaching and learning in the light of the post-pandemic. The present research focuses on setting objectives for an ICT-based course for pre-service teachers in the Indian context by reviewing the while and post-pandemic research. The themes that were given prominence in the content search process were challenges and solutions related to ICT-based training of pre-service teachers. With this, an attempt was made to set objectives for an ICT-based course for pre-service teachers in India. The study has implications for teacher education, online learning, and online pedagogy.
