Abstract: The technical literature tackled the issues of training transfer and training assessment from two distinct research directions that sometimes happened to intermingle; in the light of recent discoveries, we considered these issues were interrelated via a causal connection. We used an analysis of the approach of these two topics in 30 enterprises that constantly provided their employees with training in the past two full years. The present paper demonstrated the fact that the training transfer rate is: a) strongly influenced by the extent to which training evaluation methods were used; b) moderately influenced by the support employees received when they returned to work in order to implement what they had learned; and c) it is not influenced by the proper training evaluation methods (which may be different depending on the specific of the training and the expertise of the human resources specialist who undertakes the assessment).

Keywords: training transfer; training assessment; causal connection; influencing factors; Pearson correlation. (search for similar items in EconPapers)
