Test the validity of the Cronbach Alpha coefficient with an acceptance limit of 0.72 vs 0.73, (theory vs clinical function). SPPS data analysis is used according to design using descriptive statistics. Academic research is very minimally applied in clinical (85%), lack of knowledge and skills of academic staff (70%), use of conventional methods of ward management (72%), irrelevance of total working hours to nurse workload (82%), advantages and disadvantages of using standard clinical protocols (79%), nursing learning outcomes are not applied in health practice after graduation.
