Newly licensed registered nurses and prelicensure nursing students had confidence in their understanding of QSEN competencies as they began their transition to practice. Online learning and virtual practicums were effective for attaining QSEN competencies, offering support for using these interventions in academic settings and transition-to-practice programs.
