Student satisfaction is an important means of assessing the institution's capacity in meeting the students' learning needs. The degree of student's satisfaction with their educational experience is an important dimension in the assessment of institutional effectiveness. Understanding students' perceptions and satisfaction is important in efforts to enrich the students' learning experiences. This study aimed at identifying the student's socio-demographic factors that influenced satisfaction with the nursing training among the final year nursing students in Kenya Medical Training College. This was a mixed method design where both quantitative and qualitative data was collected using the following; a self-administered questionnaire comprising of both closed and open ended questions and a Likert's rating scale which scored the levels of satisfaction on various themes. Data was collected from final year nursing students in the six selected campuses. Quantitative data was analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Scientists (SPSS) program version 20.0. Chi-square tests were used to test relationships between perceived level of satisfaction and the selected independent variables. The results showed that gender of student did not influence students overall satisfaction. However, students who had positive college experience were satisfied with overall teaching and learning process. Student's information sources regarding the nursing career had a significant association with their satisfaction with teaching and learning process.
