Objective: To validate the content of a self-instructional course based on the Theory of Planned Behavior, aimed at training Primary Health Care nurses in reducing salt consumption. Methodology: Methodological study conducted in two stages: course development and content validation by 18 expert judges. Items were evaluated for clarity, relevance, and comprehensiveness on a four-point Likert scale, and analyzed using the Content Validity Index (I-CVI, S-CVI/Ave, S-CVI/UA). Results: The course obtained S-CVI/Ave of 0.98 and S-CVI/UA of 0.72, indicating high agreement among experts. Suggestions focused on improving language, adding practical examples, and strengthening theoretical alignment. Conclusion: The course demonstrated satisfactory content validity and potential to enhance nursing educational practices in Primary Health Care.
