Journal Title: Revista Eugenio Espejo - Year 2021, Vol 15, Issue 2

Abstract

This research aimed to determine the relevance for the generation of postgraduate training programs in the nursing area at the National University of Chimborazo, in 2019. A descriptive and transversal study with a quantitative approach was developed. The population was constituted by 467 individuals who spontaneously agreed: 450 nursing professionals and 17 employers of health care units in the Ecuadorian territory. The data were collected from two surveys: one addressed to professional nursing staff and the other one to managers and employers. The female gender predominated (92%), as well as the ages between 20 and 29 years (51%), the bachelor's degree in Nursing (82%), those who worked in general hospitals (66%) and those ones with 10 or less years of experience (76%). Most of the professionals involved said that they could pay between 5,000 and 6,500 USD for a fourth-level training at the National University of Chimborazo, with face-to-face meetings on weekends. Employers considered this specialized preparation necessary and identified Obstetrics Gynecology, research, and teaching as the areas in greatest demand by the institutions they represented.
