Information pertaining to self-regulated learning strategies for nurses in distance learning is scarce, There is also insufficient information regarding suitable learning support. We conducted a survey, exploring the demographic data and self-regulated learning strategies of 183 nurses who used distance learning; 159 nurses responded. In this study, nurses tended to use “asking peers” as their primary learning support. Additionally, “developing learning plans,” “devising learning methods,” and “reflecting on learning methods” showed a positive correlation. “Developing learning plans,” “devising learning methods,” and “rewarding oneself” also showed a positive correlation. Finally, a positive correlation was found between “asking peers” and “rewarding oneself.” A bulletin board for exchanging opinions among learners and the implementation of a pre-course were suggested as ways to support distance learning for nurses.
