This is an elective course program that addresses this topic and contributes to the knowledge of this disease, in order to improve research and possible treatments.
Objective: To design an elective course program on diagnosis and physical-therapeutic intervention in the prodromal phase of spinocerebellar ataxia type 2 for first year Clinical Neurophysiology students at the ¨Arides Estévez Sánchez¨ School of Nursing in Holguín.
Method: A methodological didactic research was carried out using the empirical methods: observation; theoretical: historical-logical, documentary study, dialectical; analysis-synthesis and induction-deduction.

The contents were presented by themes, objectives, essential knowledge to acquire, main skills to master and evaluation system.
