Background and purpose: Stakeholder engagement is the basis of an emerging and innovative educational model called competency-based education. However, although several studies have analysed the stakeholders' perspective in nursing, few studies have analysed the stakeholders' perspective in competence-based curriculum design. Thus, the aim of this study was to analyse the opinions and perspectives of stakeholders about the development of a competency-based baccalaureate nursing curriculum with stakeholder engagement. Methods: A phenomenological study was conducted. This method combines descriptive features (Husserlian) and interpretive phenomenology (Gadamerian). The interviews were ended when data saturation was achieved, specifically the redundancy of themes. Results: The content analysis identified three main categories: (1) a “bridge” that merges education and the work context, (2) stakeholder engagement – a contentious issue; and (3) stakeholder engagement – structuring a methodology. Conclusions: Through the stakeholder engagement, university could have a constant interaction between the didactics and professional practice and could improve professional identity and job satisfaction among nurses.

Abstract

Background and purpose: Stakeholder engagement is the basis of an emerging and innovative educational model called competency-based education. However, although several studies have analysed the stakeholders' perspective in nursing, few studies have analysed the stakeholders' perspective in competence-based curriculum design. Thus, the aim of this study was to analyse the opinions and perspectives of stakeholders about the development of a competency-based baccalaureate nursing curriculum with stakeholder engagement. Methods: A phenomenological study was conducted. This method combines descriptive features (Husserlian) and interpretive phenomenology (Gadamerian). The interviews were ended when data saturation was achieved, specifically the redundancy of themes. Results: The content analysis identified three main categories: (1) a “bridge” that merges education and the work context, (2) stakeholder engagement – a contentious issue; and (3) stakeholder engagement – structuring a methodology. Conclusions: Through the stakeholder engagement, university could have a constant interaction between the didactics and professional practice and could improve professional identity and job satisfaction among nurses.
