description Background: Due to the nature of their carrier, nurses need to effectively communicate with patients, their families, physicians, and hospital managers at different levels. Therefore, they should acquire effective social communication skills to enhance teamwork and promote patients’ health. Objectives: This study was conducted to determine the effect of promoting social competence based on the Flenner model on nursing students’ self-efficacy. Methods: This semi-experimental study was conducted on 60 final-year nursing students of Urmia Azad University in 2019. The samples were randomly assigned to intervention and control groups. The data collection tool was a two-part questionnaire including demographic information and a functional self-efficacy questionnaire. In the intervention group, the educational program was conducted during six sessions of virtual education consisting of lectures and three sessions of group discussion. In the control group, no educational intervention was performed. Data were analyzed in SPSS16 software using paired t-tests and independent t-tests. Results: The findings showed that the average scores of clinical self-efficacy and its domains in the intervention group, before and after the implementation of the social competence promotion training program, were significantly different (p<0.05). Moreover, there was a statistically significant difference between the intervention and control groups in the overall clinical performance self-efficacy scores after the intervention (t=5.21, p=0.006). Conclusion: The results demonstrated that the teaching social competence promotion program based on the Flanner model could effectively promote nursing students' self-efficacy and clinical competence. This program can potentially teach communication and adaptability skills for better teamwork performance, interdisciplinary activities, and model-oriented nursing.
