The subjective questions were analyzed using the content analysis method, and the derived contents were done by frequency and percentage. Results : As a result of this study, nursing career training centers under Korean Nursing Association are most appropriate as consortium establishment agencies of the regional-based simulation training centers, and it was confirmed that the roles of the simulation training centers such as developing scenarios, nurturing specialists, and providing facilities and equipment were necessary. Conclusion : If the regional-based simulation training centers are established and operated in the nursing career training centers under Korean Nursing Association, it is considered that the problems of the current clinical training will be overcome by providing standardized high-quality simulation education as well as the educational resources will be equitably distributed to many universities.
