Considering the relevance of works about continuing teacher education, we have conducted a research with 189 teachers enrolled in an education program to evaluate it. The theoretical framework supporting our analysis is based on the conceptual, psychological, and professional characteristics that guide the education design. The research showed the presence of these three components with variable levels of domination. Particularly, the research work represented by the thesis developed by the students during the education program was one of the main aggregation points of these components. It was possible to observe the model adequacy to a continuing education analysis.
