Summary

Introduction

Training is some form of investment to build effective employees. Organization on the one hand provides training to employees so that the employees in return might be able to upgrade their sets of knowledge and their skills. The bad news in all of this is that organization will suffer tremendous losses from the investment decision when employees that they have nurtured and trained decide to leave the organization and use their newly acquired skills in another organization. This would represent a massive loss of investment/capital on the part of the organization that could have been better used in other areas of the organization. This study will try to deal with the extent of effectiveness of employees in transferring back the training that they’d gained/attended back at their workplace depends namely on three important factors. These identified factors are in essence; support, training design and motivation
