Abstract
Nursing professional development practitioners are critical to nurse residency program (NRP) development, implementation, and evaluation. Conducting a program evaluation provides an opportunity to collect and analyze data on identified goals and outcome measures and determine if the program components need to modified or changed. Health care organizations need a systematic process for evaluating NRPs to ensure effectiveness of program delivery, provide evidence to demonstrate program value to the organization, report achievement of program outcomes, and for continuous quality improvement. With the growing importance of offering high-quality NRPs, nurses in professional development must critically consider the type of data required to demonstrate program value and use the best tools to collect outcome data. This article discusses a variety of data collection tools that can be selected to measure NRP outcomes. [J Contin Educ Nurs. 2022;53(9):389-392.].
