With the objective of evaluating the competences for health education and promotion, interdisciplinarity and management by using the original model from the University of North Carolina, 21 experts in the subject were interviewed. All of the subjects were health professionals performing in the 17th Regional Health Area of Santa Catarina, Brazil. In this article, we present the results of the construction of the tree diagram, the jury method, verifying agreement among the judges, and of the depositions. The quantitative data were analyzed according to descriptive statistics and the depositions by using content analysis. The data evidenced that the competences and their dimensions were positively evaluated by the experts. The set of answers that received grades 4 and 5 reached 86,5%. These data and the depositions have confirmed the source of the proposal what authorizes us to consider it an instrument valid to be incorporated in the educational programs in the health area.
