Abstract

Objective: To understand the results obtained with the “Improvement Course for planning intersectoral action in health promotion at school” offered by Fiocruz Brasilia, between 2014 and 2015, to 25 professionals involved with the School Health Program in the Federal District.
Methodology: Description of objectives and steps of the course; analysis of the mobilization process for participation, expectations and opinions of students on each module and the overall proposal.
Results: Educators trained to plan, act and reflect on practical situations of inter‑sectoral and collaborative management. The stages of training included the collective elaboration of the project, bringing together local, regional and federal managers of the health program at the school, the mobilization in the territory and participatory methodology in nine thematic modules. Researchers and health and education professionals were the public of the course. Overall, the group’s profile was female (92%) of college graduates (67%) and health professionals (70%). The final work presented collective projects of intervention in the territory, focusing on actions to search for data in health facilities and schools, the educational action at the school, ongoing training of education and health professionals in everyday spaces of their practice and the strengthening of the Inter‑Sectoral Working Group, through dialogue technology.

Conclusion: It is important to seek training experiences articulated to the professional practice of the participants and bring together health and educational workers.
