This study aims to know the perception of the professionals who coordinated the marital education program Living as partners: Turning challenges into opportunities (Viver a dois: Compartilhando este desafio) about the reverberations of the program in the participating couples. Group interviews were conducted with ten teams of professionals who conducted workshops of the program, totaling 28 participants. Data were analyzed using Thematic Analysis, with the support of NVivo software. The themes show that the couples presented reactions of both receptivity and reluctance to certain activities. It is evidenced that the relationship established between the couples produces reflection and learning. It is perceived that marital education programs may extend the perspectives of marital life, as well as enhance the closeness between couples and improve their conflict resolution strategies.
