Degree courses for experienced nurses through part-time study are relatively new in Britain. The first course started in 1979, but their number has dramatically increased during the past decade, particularly in England. Due to this increase it is important that analysis of career paths of the graduates should occur. As no suitable questionnaire was found from the literature one was devised. Posting this to all graduates from three courses gave a response from 113 graduates (77.4%). Results showed graduates to be continuing in nursing. They showed life-long motivation to study and felt personal growth from the degree. Movement of graduates predominantly from clinical areas into nurse education was found.
通过业余学习为经验丰富的护士开设学位课程在英国相对较新。第一门课程始于1979年,但在过去十年中其数量急剧增加,尤其是在英格兰。由于数量的增加,对毕业生的职业道路进行分析很重要。由于在文献中未找到合适的问卷,因此设计了一份问卷。将问卷寄给三门课程的所有毕业生后,收到了113名毕业生(77.4%)的回复。结果显示毕业生仍在从事护理工作。他们表现出终身学习的动力,并从学位中感受到个人成长。发现毕业生主要从临床领域转向护士教育领域。
