Abstract :
This study aims to explore and test empirically the relationships between variables such as self-efficacy, motivation, content validity, ease of use, communication with trainer, supervisor support and transfer of training. The research was carried out in a large financial organization located in Greece. Research data were collected using an instrument with 19 items which distributed to 480 employees who attended an e-learning course. The findings of the study indicate that three of the six independent variables (motivation, validity of content and supervisor support) were statistically significant related to transfer of training.
