It is about a descriptive and exploratory study with the objective of identifying Nursing Graduation Courses in Brazil that contemplate the group theme within the educational plan and its characteristics. From the data collected with Nursing Course professors in a form answered and sent back to the researchers, it has been possible to verify that teaching the group theme is little explored in the Schools, being few the common traces among the institutions regarding content, teaching hours and strategies. Due to the importance of this theme and the need of preparing the nurse for the collective work and the coordination of groups/teams, the authors recommend the insertion of this subject in the education of this professional.
