Abstract:This study examines the link between training and the perceived contribution of training to enhanced productivity or cost reduction. Using data from 92 Canadian organizations, the results indicate that organizations with higher percentage of trained employees are likely perceive training to be beneficial. Additionally, the results suggest that perceived benefits of training are further enhanced by the presence of human resources management practices that either encourages employees to undertake training (the motivation bundle) and/or provides a systematic assessment of post-training effectiveness (the assessment bundle).
