title: Self-learning packages in staff development.
abstract: Potential uses for self-learning packages in the nursing staff development setting include orientation programs, mandatory education programs, developmental programs, and review of infrequently used skills. The staff development educator can use pretest and posttest results obtained from the use of self-learning packages to document intervention with the learner. Benefits for both learners and staff development educators when this teaching strategy is used are described.
