Abstract : Background and Aim: Simulation-based training is a new approach to nursing education, significantly enhancing student performance compared to the traditional style of teaching and learning. This study aimed to understand the proficiency, competence, and confidence of nursing students at Adventist Medical Center College, Iligan Inc.  Methods: This research used a descriptive approach to the effectiveness of simulation-based training (SBT) for 40 Level 2 nursing students, assessing their skill proficiency, attitudes toward SBT, and perceived confidence and competence. The data collected will be analyzed to determine the impact of SBT on their clinical skills and confidence levels.  Results: Students showed better skills in IV termination, priming, and regulating after the training, had positive views on simulation-based training, and found it helpful. In terms of their confidence level, they felt more confident in their clinical skills after the training. At the same time, the students became more competent and prepared to perform IV-related tasks in a clinical setting.  Conclusion: This research highlights that simulation-based training boosts competence and confidence among students by replicating real-life scenarios in a safe environment. To maximize the benefits, institutions should integrate simulation into the curriculum, allocate necessary resources, and offer continuous faculty development.
