In continuous medical learning programs, selection of appropriate learning methods is important for streaming individuals by learning process.

In one control group and three groups case groups were randomly selected from among practical nurses. The comparison was made by Mc Timar Test, paired t-test, analysis of variance and HSD test.
Findings
Participation in classes was found to be difficult for the nurses in half of the studied units (51.7%) and 45.7% of individuals tend to pass their courses (studying hygiene) by distance learning methods (self-teaching + communicating with professors).
Conclusions
Distance learning method would be more effective in improving knowledge of health workers compared with in-presence learning method.
