Abstract
A study which examines those factors perceived to be associated with the transfer of learning from the training to the work situation is presented. It was found that trainers were more pessimistic than their clients about the extent to which successful transfer was achieved. The main factors inhibiting the transfer of learning were associated with the working environment to which trainees returned and included the low receptivity of bosses and colleagues to new ideas and their strong commitment to rules and procedures which inhibited innovation and improvement.
