The influence of individual characteristics in transfer of technical training in Vietnamese enterprises

摘要

This study investigates the relationships between individual characteristics (including outcome expectation; perceived relevance of training; trainee ability) and transfer of technical training (TTT) in Vietnamese enterprises. Quantitative method was employed to examine how individual characteristics influence TTT. A self-completion questionnaire was administered to 185 employees in seven Vietnamese enterprises. All these employees received training from their enterprise. The results show that three predicted individual factors significantly influenced on TTT. Based on the findings, this study suggest that in order to motivate trainee’s efforts to transfer, organisational changes should be conducted to offer bonus as well as perceived relevance of training succeeding training activities.
