M.Cur. / The attitude, insight and contribution of a group of unit managers into student nurse education, as well as the problems related to this function, was explored in an exploratory descriptive survey in contextual relation. The target population was confined to hospitals affilliated to the Western Transvaal Nursing College. The attitude of unit managers was found to be positive towards their training function although a lack of insight regarding the program content and training policy regarding the new comprehensive four year course was illustrated. A lack of collaboration between the college and unit managers was also evident, regarding standards and student evaluation. The main recommendations include the design and implementation of inservice education programmes and improved liason between teaching and unit personnel including differentiation of the student-teaching function for unit managers.
