| Sumario: | In Scotland, learning disability nursing education is provided by institutions in the central region, resulting in fewer numbers of qualified nurses across other areas of the country. To solve this problem, a partially online model of education for pre-registration learning disability nurses, called the 'disseminated model', has been piloted at three universities. This article discusses findings from the pilot, which will conclude in August. It shows that, with the greater involvement of students, greater use of information technology training, more preparatory information, more support from group cohesiveness and sustained mentoring, an improved disseminated model could be valuable in many areas of education.
