With the development of new learning and telecommunications technology, the opportunity to transform traditional orientation practices for nurses was envisioned by Saint Elizabeth Health Care. The Virtual Internship (VI) Project was initiated and consisted of the development and testing of a telementoring tool. New graduates were matched with preceptors and both groups accessed Web-based policies and procedures, certification programs and learning modules, an on-line discussion forum, as well as traditional face-to-face mentoring.
