Abstract
Using data collected from a sample of 661 Spanish manufacturing plants, each with a minimum workforce of 50 employees, and representing all the manufacturing industries, this paper examines the factors that determine the level of investment made by firms in training. Investment in total training was found to be positively influenced by the degree of internationalization, the degree of technical change, the adoption of quality assurance systems, and the implementation of advanced work organization practices. The analysis of different types of training shows that, except for basic training, the determinants are quite similar to the ones found for total training.
