ADMINISTRATORS’ ROLES IN TRAINING PROGRAMS AND TRAINING TRANSFER
Abstract: An administrator
plays a vital role in the growth and development of his/her subordinates.
Despite this notion, the role of an administrator in the context of training
programs and transfer of training is not well studied. Therefore, this study is
set to examine the relationship between administrator’s role in training
programs and training transfer. A survey method was utilized to gather 706
survey questionnaires from employees of local authorities of three cities in
the state of Sarawak, Malaysia. The results of SmartPLS path model analysis
confirmed that the ability of administrators to properly implement support,
communication and assignment in planning and implementing training programs has
been an important predictor of training transfer in the studied organization.
Further, this study provides discussion, implications and conclusion.
