The objective was to analyze health professionals’ perception regarding the educational strategies in diabetes undertaken by the interdisciplinary team in primary care. A total of twelve health professionals in primary care units in Belo Horizonte in the state of Minas Gerais (MG) participated in focus groups in March – April 2011, aiming to problematize the experience of the interdisciplinary work in the educational practice, and the factors which act as facilitators or barriers for the effectiveness of diabetes education. The results were organized based on the identification of the categories: 1) Issues related and/or attributed to the clientele itself, 2) Professional training; 3) Multidisciplinary work and 4) Planning of educational actions. The study showed the importance of planning and evaluating the educational practices, and the integration of interdisciplinary work in the interventions as a means of establishing strategies for prevention and control of the disease, and promotion of health in relation to it.
