A convenience sample of 45 nurse educators in a Saudi college completed the Cultural Diversity Questionnaire for Nurse Educators-Revised. Semi-structured interviews with 20 purposively selected educators provided insights into factors influencing cultural competence.

Cultural competence, particularly awareness, played a significant role in shaping and predicting Transcultural Teaching Behaviors, with 92.3% of the variance in teaching behaviors. Thematic analysis identified personal factors, professional development, institutional support, and barriers that influence educators\u2019 ability to foster cultural competence. Age, multilingualism, training, and professional growth were found to significantly enhance educators\u2019 cultural competence.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Nurse educators show moderate cultural competence, with cultural awareness playing a key role in predicting Transcultural Teaching Behaviors.
