What is Clinical learning environment and supervision: experiences of Norwegian nursing students – a questionnaire survey about?

**Aim and objective.** To measure nursing students’ experiences and satisfaction with their clinical learning environments. The primary interest was to compare the results between students with respect to clinical practice in nursing homes and hospital wards. **Background.** Clinical learning environments are important for the learning processes of nursing students and for preferences for future workplaces. Working with older people is the least preferred area of practice among nursing students in Norway. **Design.** A cross‐sectional design. **Methods.** A validated questionnaire was distributed to all nursing students from five non‐randomly selected university colleges in Norway. A total of 511 nursing students completed a Norwegian version of the questionnaire, Clinical Learning Environment, Supervision and Nurse Teacher (CLES+T) evaluation scale in 2009. Data including descriptive statistics were analysed using the Statistical Program for the Social Sciences. Factor structure was analysed by principal component analysis. Differences across sub‐groups were tested with chi‐square tests and Mann–Whitney __U__ test for categorical variables and __t__‐tests for continuous variables.
