description This descriptive research aimed to study competencies in community health management among nursing students as perceived by themselves, to compare their competencies classified by year of study, and to evaluate actual competencies in community health management among the 4th year nursing students. The sample calculated by Taro Yamane’s formula was 200 nursing students in the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th year in the academic year 2019. Stratified random sampling was used to draw the sample. All 79 nursing students in the fourth year were rated for their actual competence by the nurse instructors. The research instrument was a questionnaire. Content validity of the questionnaire was confirmed by three experts; the CVI was 0.83. Reliability was tested using Cronbach’s alpha coefficient yielding a value of 0.97. Data were analyzed using mean, standard deviation, and One-way ANOVA. The results revealed: - 1) Overall, perceived competency in community health management of nursing students was at a high level (M=3.66, S.D.=0.75). It also found that the nursing students in the first and the second year had competencies in community health management at a moderate level (M=3.21, S.D.=1.02and M=3.48, S.D.=0.27, respectively), mean while the nursing students in the third and the fourth year had competencies in community health management of the nursing students at a high level (M=3.81, S.D.=0.53 and M=4.22, S.D.=0.49 respectively), 2) There was a statistically significant difference in perceived competency between the different years of study (p<.05), and 3) The actual competence of the fourth year nursing students rated by the nurse instructors was at a high level (M=4.16, S.D.=.38).
