Abstract
Outcomes evaluation research on continuing education (CE) is virtually unexplored in the perioperative and general nursing literature. This outcomes evaluation research study explored whether participants changed their practice behaviors after participation in a one‐day CE activity (eg, used knowledge gained, consistently performed new skills, integrated new values into their practices). One hundred seventy‐one attendees participated. Data analysis revealed that behaviors and practices did change as a result of attending the CE activity. Participants reported that the organizations, settings, or departments in which they were employed and their peers were challenges to their use of CE in practice. AORN J 62 (July 1995) 92–100.
