Background: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic forced nursing educators to switch face-to-face courses to virtual learning. This article describes how faculty transitioned a face-to-face public health nursing course to remote learning and examines student response to this transition. Method: Data were collected via a 12-question REDCap survey. Using a mixed-methods design, descriptive statistics were calculated for quantitative data, and a descriptive qualitative approach was used for qualitative data analysis. Results: Survey response rate was 35% ( n = 26). Using a 4-point Likert scale, mean question score was 3.55 (range, 2.65 to 3.85). Themes within the transition facilitator category included emotional support for students, communication, availability, flexibility, and course organization. Themes within the transition challenges category included examinations, course-to-course communication, COVID-19 course content, and technology. Conclusion: It is essential for nursing educators to learn from the emergency transition of spring 2020 to capitalize on successes and mitigate challenges moving forward.
