Objective This study presents the results of an internal validation of a successful transition and adaptation preparation for a post-career career program for senior adults. Method A total of 10 judges, with in-depth knowledge in the field of vocational guidance and career development, were asked to decide about the congruence between a set of activities and the dimensions and the development tasks that constitute the rationale of the program. Results Out of the total of 11 activities that make up the core of the program, eight were unanimously considered to be adequate for the intervention’s objectives, that is, in direct relation to the theoretical rationale, namely the dimensions and relevant development tasks. Conclusion The results obtained demonstrate a good acceptance of the program by the judges to whom it was presented.
