The iSalman mobile application was developed as a digital learning tool to enhance students’ knowledge, clinical experience, and readiness for such assessments. This study examined its impact on student performance using a quasi-experimental design with a one-group pre-test and post-test approach. A total of 257 students from midwifery and nursing programs participated. Findings indicate that the iSalman application substantially improved knowledge scores and was strongly correlated with enhanced clinical experience. The majority of participants achieved competency upon assessment, suggesting that the application effectively supports the acquisition of professional skills. The study highlights the potential of mobile learning platforms in health education, particularly for strengthening practical competence, increasing student confidence, and supporting success in high-stakes examinations. Broader implementation could further enhance workforce readiness and quality standards in health professions education.</p> <p><strong><em>Keywords: </em></strong>Clinical experience; competency test; health education; mobile learning; student performance</p> Dwie Yunita Baska, Farida Esmianti, Wewet Savitr, Diah Eka Nugraheni, Sri Nengsi Detriani Copyright (c) 2025 International Journal of Emerging Trends in Health Sciences https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://un-pub.eu/ojs/index.php/ijeths/article/view/9823 Sun, 31 Aug 2025 00:00:00 +0300
