This article demonstrates how an action learning approach was used to implement and develop a practice learning team in a clinical setting. The team linked a higher education institution and a practice setting to improve the placement experience for nursing students and practice mentors. The practice learning team has developed initiatives to improve mentoring for nursing students.
