Introduction: The discussion about the curriculum of health area courses becomes relevant for the proposal of educational strategies that promote the development of collaborative skills. This situation will enable a change in the culture of health care, especially for the demands of the older adults. Objective: To assess the collaborative skills acquired by undergraduate students attending the Gerontology discipline. Method: This is a qualitative study, carried out with students from the Nursing, Medicine, and Nutrition courses of a public university, who took an optional course with an interprofessional focus in 2019. Data collection included the conduction of a focus group and the application of a semi structured interview. The data were analyzed using the Content Analysis technique. Results: Nine students were evaluated, and they reported the development of collaborative skills, such as teamwork, effective communication, and the planning of comprehensive care for the older adults. Conclusion: The individualized expressions of the students participating in this study make us believe that interprofessional learning qualifies as an opportunity to develop collaborative skills.
<p>El enfoque de doble abordaje (cualitativo y cualitativo), cuando se combina, permite ampliar la recopilación de datos sobre un objeto de investigación relacionado a una determinada realidad. Por ello, ambas perspectivas no deben considerarse antagónicas, sino complementarias.</p><p><strong><em>Objetivo</em></strong>: Reflexionar y proponer un enfoque dual de recopilación de datos describiendo su aplicabilidad en la investigación del proceso de formación y educación permanente de los equipos de Centros de Atención Psicosocial (CAPS) con el fin de establecer la práctica compartida y la integridad del cuidado.</p><p><strong><em>Método</em></strong>: Se propone una investigación de campo en dos etapas: la primera, con la aplicación de una escala actitudinal Likert al universo de la población y la segunda, mediante una entrevista semiestructurada para la profundización de la recopilación de datos.
