Abstract: An effective system of personnel training is one of the most important factors of companies' growth and development of the whole economy, especially in times of rapid technological progress. This study is aimed to analyze the factors affecting the companies' stimulus to invest in the employees' human capital in Russia. Logistic regressions to determine the effects using data from Russian firms in 2011 are applied in the study. The study shows that innovative activity of the enterprise, a high proportion of workers with higher education, and an active employment policy have a positive effect on the probability of the availability of training programs in the enterprise.
