TL;DR: The stronger evidence suggests that new graduate education should focus on practical skill development, preceptors should receive a level of formal training, formal support should be available at least through the difficult six to nine month post-hire period, opportunities for connection with their peers should be provided, and organizations should strive to ensure clinical units with healthy work environments.

TL;DR: Nurse managers are in key positions to advocate for new graduate nurse transition programmes with adequate resources to support a four week orientation phase and shift scheduling to ensure an adequate number of hours over two week periods to facilitate transition.

TL;DR: Bullied new graduate nurses were less able to access support when needed and had poorer transition experiences than their non-bullied peers and people supports within transition programs positively influenced the new graduate nurse transition experience.

TL;DR: Although new graduates preferred hands-on learning, the helpfulness of workshops was associated with better transition, and access to support was better for nurse graduates who received education delivered throughout the first year of transition.
