Student-centered approach, interactive teaching and learning are important in nursing education because it is critical for student nurses to achieve balanced core competencies for better clinical performance, also foster preparedness of the new graduate nurse to meet the ever changing health care environment. Purpose of the study: The study was conducted to identify learner centered approach as perceived by teaching staff and students. Research design: Descriptive study was utilized to conduct this study.
