ASSESSING THE MEDIATING EFFECT OF TRAINING MOTIVATION BETWEEN TRAINING DESIGN AND JOB PERFORMANCE

Abstract

Reviews on the training management literature have emphasised that the training design consists of three essential elements: (1) training content; (2) instructors’ roles; and (3) superiors’ support, which may lead to a high impact on job performance of employees. However, a thorough investigation showed that the relationship between those elements was mediated by training motivation. Therefore, this study aims to confirm the effect of training motivation in military organisations. The measurement was using 412 samples in the Malaysian Army Infantry Corps. Testing the hypotheses using SmartPLS version 3.2.5 revealed these exciting findings: training motivation does act as an important mediating variable between course content, instructors’ roles and superior support in the relationship with job performance in organisational samples. Further, the discussion, implications and conclusion are elaborated.
