This research evaluated clinical training provided by academic institutions that offer the Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BScN) program. The purpose of the study was to describe the adequacy of clinical training and the graduates’ preparedness for nursing practice. The research was conducted between September 2008 and March 2010. The design of the research was a cross section survey using the questionnaire and focus group interview (FGI) methods to collect data. The sample comprised 232 subjects including pre-service BScN graduates and nursing supervisors. The study sites were four teaching and referral hospitals in Kenya. The research findings showed that the clinical training provided by the academic institutions was adequate. However, the quality of training varied widely among the training institutions. Based on the research findings, the study concluded that clinical training provided by the baccalaureate nursing programs in Kenya was of high quality. This study recommends that urgent attention was required by nursing educators of the BScN programmes to address identified gaps in clinical training especially in clinical instruction and supervision of students.
