Abstract Background: The availability of clinical training sites presents a significant barrier to developing and implementing an effective nursing curriculum. There are several challenges to effective nursing clinical training, affecting both students and healthcare facilities globally. Method: This study reviews the barriers and challenges related to clinical training in nursing education, examining existing literature on related aspects. Additionally, the paper explores innovative solutions, such as simulation training, inter-professional education, and academic-practice partnerships, to address these issues. Results: The findings highlight critical obstacles, including insufficient clinical placements, shortage of nurse educators, and inadequate infrastructure. Simulation and inter-professional education models were identified as effective strategies to supplement traditional clinical training and improve student competencies while encouraging collaboration among healthcare professionals. Conclusion: Addressing training site limitations and adopting simulation-based learning, inter-professional education, and stronger academic-practice partnerships will ensure a more effective, adaptable nursing curriculum that meets the evolving needs of healthcare systems. Keywords: Clinical training, challenges, nursing education, recommendations.
