Abstract
The aims of this study was to determine the perceptions of clinical instructors(CIs) towards Educational Preparation and Organizational Support for Their Role. The study design was a observational analytic. Convenience sampling was used in this study. Which is 104 respondents were recruited within 2 weeks. Descriptive and correlative analysis using Chi-square shows that Most CIs have positive perceptions of their role. The results showed that most CIs had a positive perception of their role. Furthermore,it was known that the length of experience working as CI was associated with pedagogical competence (p = 0.047), support and educational resources (0.046), and teaching service integration (0.013). Meanwhile, preceptor training was associated with educational program planning (0.037). It can be concluded that although nurses have a positive perception of their role as CI, several demographic factors influence their competence in teaching. It is important for academic education to facilitate each CI hospital in gaining teaching competence abilities.
