Abstract: This study proposed a training transfer mechanism with creative self-efficacy, training need, and supervisor support as antecedents for the motivation to transfer, motivation to transfer as a mediator of training and regret as a moderator between motivation to transfer and training transfer. A two-phase experiment was conducted. In Phase One: an intervention group (n = 221) and a comparison group (n = 238) received 24-hour creativity and management training, respectively. Phase Two was conducted six months after the training. After the participants (n = 212) filled in the questionnaire, structural equation models were employed to analyse factors affecting the training transfer model. The results showed that in the long-term perspective of training transfer, supervisor support is more important than individuals’ creative self-efficacy at the onset of creativity training. Additionally, regret is a positive moderator; individuals’ motivation to transfer increases when they reflect on and correct their behaviour.
