Abstract: " Objective - Training management literature emphasizes the designing of training programs consisting of three important elements: (1) training syllabus; (2) instructors' roles; and (3) superiors' support, which may lead to a high impact of training transfer in organizations. However, the role of training motivation as a mediator is given less emphasis in the training program. Therefore, this research aims to investigate and quantify the effect of training motivation in military training based on Islamic views. Methodology/Technique - A cross-sectional method was employed in this study, which allowed the researchers to integrate the training literature, the pilot study, and the survey as the main procedures to collect data. A convenience sampling technique distributed 329 self-administered questionnaires to the Malaysian Army and training establishment Muslim military personnel. Then, the survey questionnaire data were analyzed using SmartPLS path analysis. Finding - The outcomes of hypotheses testing showed these interesting findings: training motivation does act as an important mediating variable between training syllabus and instructors' roles in the relationship with training transfer. At the same time, there is no mediation effect in the relationship between superiors' support and training transfer. Novelty - The confirmatory factor analysis results showed that the instrument used in this study satisfactorily met the standard of validity and reliability analyses. Furthermore, the SmartPLS path model analysis outcomes proved that training syllabus and instructors' roles were important predictors of trainees' training motivation in the organizations. Type of Paper - Empirical"
