Project summary

Suitability assessment is a professional and ethical evaluation of whether a student possesses the necessary prerequisites to practise the profession in a responsible manner. This project examines reports of doubt regarding suitability in Norwegian nursing education programmes over the past ten years. The aim is to map and analyse these reports to understand their characteristics and to explore how students experience suitability and the areas identified as particularly critical through the mapping of doubt reports. The project will generate new knowledge about what characterises reports of doubt concerning suitability and how students relate to this during their educational journey. This will provide valuable insight into understanding the challenges and improving the quality of nursing education to ensure that future nurses are well suited for the profession.
