Abstract
This article reported on a survey which was designed to measure aspects of community psychiatric nursing (CPN) education in the UK. Thirty-two of the 39 course leaders who ran postqualifying programmes in CPN responded to a nine-page postal questionnaire. Findings indicated that the majority of courses are now run at degree level, and that most appear to include education in key areas of specialist content pertinent to contemporary CPN practice (e.g. collaborative working with service users). Overall, however, the article reported that courses for CPN appeared to be characterized by considerable variation in specialist content. The article concluded by offering possible explanations for this variation and some suggestions for future research.
