Professional courses like nursing has integrated theory with practical learning and involves the decision making and clinical judgement. As the life is being handled therefore errors need to be zeroed, in order to acquire skill of the clinical judgement and retaining it can be done with help of virtual learning program (VLP) where case scenarios are created and life like situations are projected in front of the learner. This not only helps to decrease the threat to life also helps learner to gain confidence with immediate evaluation. Thus the study was conducted with objective to identify the impact of virtual ECH learning program on clinical judgement of baccalaureate students. Intervention (VLP) & Tools were developed and validated by the experts, tool included demographic profile, clinical judgement tool. Method of data collection was self-reporting, study participants were given access to the virtual learning program (VLP) on first day and their demographic profile and pre test was administered from day two to day six, study participants learnt from the VLP on ECG interpretation and on seventh day post test was administered followed by time series post tests on 15th as well as 30th day.
