An Empirical Study for the Model of Factors Affecting Training Performance: The Perceptual and Multi-variate

Abstract

This study designs a training model including one independent variables group "6W2H" and three dependent variables (evaluation criteria): "satisfaction with training", "improvement of ability", and "application of learning". Then the high-tech industry chosen as the research object, and a multi-variate analysis method "LISREL" is used to examine the model to find the relationships among those variables within the model. Lots of conclusions are drawn in this research, below are some important findings:
1. The motivation of trainee is significantly positive correlation with three training criteria.
2. There is no significant relationship between the source of trainer and the satisfaction with training, but the source of trainer has significant correlation with the improvement of ability and the application of learning.
3. There is more improvement of ability if a company has its own training location. 4. If the training fee paid by trainees, they were dissatisfactory easily with the training.
5. The satisfaction with training influences the improvement of ability, and the improvement of ability influences the application of learning; however, the satisfaction with training does not influence the application of learning directly.
