Outline of Final Research Achievements	Objectives: This study aimed to clarify the difficulties encountered by practical training instructors and university education staff in delivering clinical training to nursing university students with potential learning disabilities, and to consider solutions. Results: Five categories were extracted. Conclusions: Our study revealed that training instructors and teaching staff experience difficulties when teaching students with potential learning disabilities. To overcome these difficulties, university educational staff, as well as students and families, need to be educated about the existence and value of support tailored to the characteristics of an individual’s learning disability.
Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements	看護系大学における学習障がいの可能性のある学生への支援としては、合理的配慮を踏まえ、目標や内容や評価を可視化する必要がある。進路選択では、学生の強みを活かした領域や職種を視野に入れ、本人や家族や専門家と連携し支援することが示唆された。今後は、教員や指導者はもちろん本人や家族や周囲の人々を対象とした学習障がいに関する教育研修機会が必要である。それぞれの学生の特性に合わせて、教育が提供できる社会創りの必要性が示唆された。
