Abstract

Employee training is delivered as a part of most human resource development programs because organizations expect training courses will enhance their employees’ performance. However, training may not lead to improved work performance if training transfer does not occur. The lack of training transfer in practice has long been considered as a critical problem. Also, previous theoretical models of training transfer cannot fully explain this phenomenon. As an attempt to solve the training transfer problem, this paper provides a literature review on training transfer and proposes a conceptual model grounded on the Theory of Planned Behaviour.

Keyphrases: literature review, models of training transfer, the theory of planned behaviour, training transfer
