This work aims to describe the planning, execution and evaluation stages of the “1st PNAE Counselor Training Meeting”, promoted by CECANE/UFAL in 2022”. Therefore, this is an experience report on the planning, execution and evaluation of the meeting. For the meetings, all councilors from the 102 municipalities of Alagoas and the State Council for School Feeding were invited, estimating the participation of the president of the CAE and at least 1 councilor from 50% of the municipalities and, also, the participation of all 7 effective members of the State School Food Council. The invitation was made by CECANE/UFAL and disseminated via Whatsapp, the “Instagram” application and via emails from CAE members, made available by FNDE. In the invitation, the link to access the virtual room and its respective QR CODE were made available, as well as the link to register for the event using the Google Forms tool. Four meetings were held online, through the Google Meet platform, as planned, between the months of August and December 2022, lasting 6 hours, with resources being that, from the 1st group, 15 participating municipalities, the 2nd class had 8 municipalities, the 3rd class had 24 municipalities, the 4th had 11 municipalities. Considering the estimated number of participants, 4 groups were formed, which were invited separately, according to the divisions of the municipalities, by mesoregion of Alagoas. Initially, 102 municipalities were invited, and analyzing the attendance list at the end of all meetings, the presence of 50 municipalities and a total of 110 participants was noted.
