In the strategic goals of healthcare organizations to achieve success, awareness of the importance and value of this learning method is essential. The purpose of this study was to investigate the operational barriers to work-based learning in clinical environments. In this descriptive-analytical research, 220 clinical nurses and nursing managers were included in the study using available sampling and Morgan's table. After the collection of data, data analysis was done by SPSS23 software. Data were analyzed by inferential tests and descriptive statistics. From the point of view of nurses and nursing managers, managerial, organizational, and individual factors were important obstacles to work-based learning in healthcare centers. The difference between the nurses' and nursing managers' opinions was statistically significant just in managerial obstacles (P < 0.01), and the difference between the nurses' and nursing managers' opinions in organizational and individual obstacles was not statistically significant (P < 0.05). Contrary to nursing managers, nurses considered managerial obstacles more involved in work-based learning. Whereas, based on the nursing managers, organizational barriers were the most limiting factors for a method of work-based learning in clinical environments. According to the obtained results, using the method of work-based learning is one of the interactive and active learning methods that causes professional development in some fields, including nursing. Thus, it is essential to specify the factors that affect the implementation or failure of this learning method. %U https://journalinpc.com/article/studying-barriers-to-work-based-learning-in-clinical-environments-from-the-perspective-of-nursing-ma-fivhm6sdqu4ayzi
