This study explores the impact of advanced education and training on the leadership and managerial skills of nurses in Albania. The use of advanced training and the development of leadership skills are crucial for improving healthcare services and managing healthcare teams. In this study, 350 nurses working primarily at the University Hospital Center “Mother Teresa” (QSUT) and in primary healthcare centers in Tirana, Albania, were interviewed during the period from July to December 2024. Statistical analysis indicates that advanced training has a significant impact on improving the leadership and managerial skills of nurses, with notable improvements observed in those who had undergone advanced training.
