Abstract (English): Objective: To assess the learning of community health agents, in the form of knowledge and skills, to conceptualize, identify and register people with hearing, visual, physical and multiple impairments. Methods: Cross-sectional study involving 173 community health agents, who were trained to identify and register disabled people. The data were organized in an electronic worksheet and analyzed to calculate the statistical significance. Results: The community health agents identified 1,512 disabled people. The instruments of the hearing impaired were correctly completed in 83.5% and the error rate for the visually impaired was 15.3%, with (p<0.0001). The concepts of disabled person, low vision, hearing and physical impairment were understood (p<0.0001). Conclusion: The assessment of the community health agents' knowledge and skills to conceptualize, identify and register disabled people was satisfactory, showing the need for complementary training on abstract concepts.
