Nurses and midwifes without sufficient knowledge of infertilitare not likely to provide counseling and support for people suffering from infertility.  This study aimed to evaluate nursing and midwifery students' experiences with the Course on Infertility and Assisted Reproductive Techniques.  Our study had a qualitative descriptive design.  Total number of the participants was 75.  The analysis revealed five primary themes and twenty-one sub-themes.  The themes were (1) action, (2) learner centered method, (3) interaction, (4) nursing competencies, and (5) evaluation.  The active learning techniques enabled the students to retrieve the knowledge that they obtained for a long time, contributed to social and cultural development and improved skills required for selfevaluation, communication and leadership, enhanced critical thinking, skills increased motivation and satisfaction and helped with knowledge integration.  Infertility is a biopsychosocial condition, and it may be difficult for students to understand what infertile individuals experience.  The study revealed that active learning techniques enabled the students to acquire not only theoretical knowledge but also an emotional and psychosocial viewpoint and attitude regarding infertility.  The content of an infertility course should be created in accordance with changes in the needs of a given society and educational techniques.
