This study has been done to determine the effect of mastery learning model to Clinical training of nursing students. Methods: This Quasi-experimental study with non-randomized sampling was conducted on two groups of nursing students in one of the Islamic Azad Universities in Isfahan Province who had medical-surgical clinical training (nursing respiratory diseases) in 2013 and they divided into the control group (n = 9) with usual Training and the intervention group (n = 7) with mastery learning model in clinical training respectively. Sample allocation was on the decision of nursing clinical unit and without the intervention of the instructor. In each group, pre-test and post-test have been done. Practical skill of students over a period of 3 weeks was monitored and their performance was recorded by daily checklists and questionnaires that their reliability and validity were confirmed by nursing instructors. Data were analyzed by non-parametric Mann-Whitney u test and Wilcoxon through SPSS. Results: The students’ mean scores and standard deviations in control group and intervention group was 15.76± 0.84 and 15.89 ± 0.79, respectively. These results were not statistically significant (p>0.05(using the Mann-Whitney test. In practical skills the difference between the mean scores of checklist at the beginning and the end of training was 3.2± 0.08 in control group and 8.4± 0.13 in intervention group that it was significant within groups by Wilcoxon (p<0.001) and Mann-Whitney test ( p < 0.0001) showed that promoting practical skills in intervention group is significantly more than control group. Conclusion: It seems that using Mastery learning model does not make a major difference with the usual model in theoretical learning but it is a good model for training practical skills to nursing students in clinical practice.
