“…Learners are generally believed to perform a significant part in the training transfer (Burke and Hutchins, 2007; Islam and Ahmed, 2019; Bhat, 2021; Kodwani and Prashar, 2021). Various researchers contend that these traits are responsible for most changes in training effects (van der Klink et al , 2001; Mount and Mazerolle, 2021).…”

“…Participants having a higher cognitive aptitude might be well-armed to acquaint and preserve knowledge offered in training. Clear signals of the function of cognitive ability were established in a meta-analysis based on twenty years of investigation on training (Colquitt et al , 2000; Kim et al , 2019; Gregory et al , 2021; Bhat, 2021; Ha and Vanaphuti, 2022). Cognitive ability developed as the sole robust predictor of transfer of training.…”

“…Self-efficacy is described as a decision an individual makes about his capacity to complete a specified job (Bandura, 1982). Higher the participants’ self-efficacy, the higher their conviction in applying acquired abilities in performing the targeted tasks (Mount and Mazerolle, 2021; Bhat, 2021). The relationship between learners with high and low self-esteem can be termed inverse, as learners with low self-efficacy are expected to reduce their attempts, while learners with higher self-efficacy are expected to exercise further effort (Robbins and Judge, 2009; Gregory et al , 2021).…”

“…Prior to training, learning motivation and the motivation to transfer have demonstrated strong relations with training effects (Burke and Hutchins, 2007; Bhat, 2021; Kodwani and Prashar, 2021; Ha and Vanaphuti, 2022). In an analysis of the impact of participant features on training efficacy, Tziner et al (2007) established that motivation to learn was the convincing factor for learning outcomes.…”

Purpose This study aims to highlight the role of individual and instructional design factors on training transfer and explore and review focal training factors that influence the transfer of training. Design/methodology/approach A conceptual framework has been developed for this study to better present the prevalent factors that have been empirically validated. Findings The facets of transfer encompassed in this study have gathered enough evidence to demonstrate a positive association with the transfer. This review points out that all predictor variables (learner characteristics, instructional design and environmental factors) positively and significantly influence the transfer of training. A mix of variables is proposed, with further investigation recommended to develop a robust training transfer hypotheses. Research limitations/implications This study contributes to the training transfer literature in three ways. First, the authors have shown the positive influence of pre-training factors on training transfer. This study is grounded in a robust theoretical framework, thus fulfilling the previous gaps. This conceptual study elaborates on the importance of factors to establish the training transfer hypothesis. Future studies should test the suggested framework and look for other things that could help learners be more effective and motivated so that training can be more effective and transferable. Practical implications This study has significant findings for organizations operating in the current business scenario to enhance learning transfer, where the transfer is very low and a significant cause of concern for every organization. By making management aware of the success factors of training transfer, they can ensure a better training transfer. In this study, the transfer design considerations are discussed in detail, and their practical consequences are provided for training transfer in general and training professionals in particular. Originality/value The training transfer literature showcases two significant gaps; first, it lacks appropriate characteristics, and second, there is variability in the results. This study bridges the gaps and attempts to advance our understanding of training transfer grounded in the theoretical framework by focusing on learner characteristics, instructional design and work environment in training transfer, which predictor variables can improve training transfer. This study also contributes to the current training transfer literature by proposing a combination of factors that provide a theoretical foundation for developing a solid training transfer theory.
