Abstract
The advancement of technology and Artificial Intelligence applied health information systems demand high informatics competencies from nurses. To prepare nursing students to meet this demand, informatics courses are designed to increase informatics competencies. We offered an online informatics course to graduate students in a Nurse Educator program and assessed their informatics competency, including subdomains. Survey data were collected between Fall 2020 and Fall 2022 using an online Self-Assessment of Informatics Competency Scale for Health Professionals. We analyzed 109 responses and found that students were competent in overall informatics competency and the subdomains of "basic computer skills" and "applied computer skills (clinical informatics)." They were proficient in the 'role' subdomain. However, students reported less competency in managing data and incorporating standard terminology into practice. These findings provide detailed insights of the current nursing students' informatics competencies and can guide informatics faculty in improving their courses.
