Objective: to analyze the continuous education requirements of the nursing team of a public teaching hospital in southern Brazil. Method: documental, descriptive and quantitative-qualitative study, based on documents completed by nursing professionals in 2016 for the evaluation of the continuous education program of this hospital. In the data analysis, statistical functions of the Biostat5.3® and IRAMUTEQ® programs were used. Results: 72 (48%) documents completed by urgency/emergency professionals; 140 (54.93%) reports of not participating in educational actions due to not knowing; 108 (38.3%) requests for educational actions for technical-scientific updating. Regarding the expectations about the program, six classes were defined: presentation of the program; divulgation of the actions; educational actions related to the healthcare units; distance and in-sector educational actions; availability of schedules for the educational action; scale for the participation of the professionals in these actions. Conclusion: the documental analysis of these requirements supports the planning and improvement of continuous nursing education proposals.
