Staff development specialists were surveyed regarding their reasons for participation in continuing nursing education programs. Hospital-based staff development specialists (n = 279) from American Hospital Association member facilities responded to the Participation Reasons Scale (PRS). Using a Likert scale 1 to 7 rating, mean scores ranged from 3.52 to 6.40. There were significant differences in the responses of certified and noncertified staff development specialists for four items. Those with a mandatory requirement for continuing education responded differently from those without the requirement. Findings can help continuing education professionals make decisions about programming.
