Nursing faculty have established terminal functions which graduates are expected to be able to accomplish after successfully completing the nursing program. Students have asked themselves and faculty if they are ready to perform as professional nurses after graduation. This study utilized the terminal functions established by one medium-size state university to obtain data regarding the students' perceptions of their competencies based on the terminal functions. The assessment was conducted at the time of graduation and again one year post-graduation. The data may provide other faculty with a method to further evaluate nursing curricula and illustrate the changes in graduates' perceptions of their abilities over time.
护理教师已经确立了终极能力要求，期望毕业生在成功完成护理课程后能够达成这些要求。学生们会问自己和教师，毕业后是否准备好成为专业护士。本研究利用一所中等规模州立大学确立的终极能力要求来获取有关学生基于这些终极能力要求对自身能力认知的数据。评估在毕业时进行，毕业后一年再次进行。这些数据可能会为其他教师提供一种进一步评估护理课程的方法，并说明毕业生对自身能力的认知随时间的变化。
