Introduction An online education management solution (EMS) has established for the purpose of building staff interest and motivating nurses to establish professional development portfolio and becoming lifelong learners.

Then in 2017, an internal website that contains more than 65 courses which the staff can access, self-enrolled and become automatically certified. This site contains hospital orientation guide, education resources and an education calendar. Education resources contain 147 clinical skills, 69 self-enrolled courses, 12 instructor-led courses. Aim To assess the nursing staff experience response and feedback to the internal EMS. Process A survey was sent to nursing staff for data collection for 5 days. The survey covers the following points: Is it the first time to visit the website? Did you find what you need? How easy do you find information on the site? How frequently do you surf the web? What is your overall impression of the site? Data Analysis Most of the nurses visit the internal website with a percentage of 85% as illustrated in chart 1. 99% from the staff found the information they are searching for, 35% found all the topics and 64% found some of the topics. How easy to find information? staff answered as 46% easy to find the information they are looking for, as 48% were in the middle side and only 6% replied as they face difficulty to find the information on the website. As mentioned before 85% from the nursing staff responded to survey visit the website, farther analysis that show that 17% visit the EMS every day to 3 times per week, 44.2% of the staff visit the site once a week to 3 time per month, 28.5% surf the site once or less per month and 10.5% are not sure how frequent they surf the EMS.
