The objective of the present study is to evaluate the Air Force Command Reserve and Retiring Preparation Program (RRPP) coordinated by the Social Service Division Sub-Directorate of Special Responsibilities of the Directorship of Management. The study adopted a centered approach on objectives and had a summative purpose. It incorporated quantitative and qualitative methods for the collection and analysis of the data, in order to supply elements to determine if the objectives of the Program were reached. The evaluation was developed from the answers of a self-administered questionnaire alongside 39 participants of five groups of the Program, carried out in the period of 2008 to 2010, in the Military Organizations located in Guaratingueta (SP), Florianopolis (SC) and Rio de Janeiro (RJ) corresponding to a stratified sample of 30 %. The data obtained point to the contribution of the Program on minimizing the impacts that the reserve/retirement cause on the life of the individual from information and experiences shared between the participants of the RRPP. It allowed the participants to better understand the phenomenon of aging, by helping deconstruct the image of the old man linked to uselessness, incompetence and disease, as well as the awakening for the development of plans/ideas that they already had, as well as raised the establishment of new projects for the post-retirement life.
