Kajian ini dilaksanakan untuk mengkaji perhubungan antara sokongan pengurusan dengan pemindahan latihan serta mengenal pasti peranan kesedaran pembelajaran sebagai pengantara dalam perhubungan tersebut. Kaedah kaji selidik digunakan untuk mendapatkan hasil dapatan kajian sebanyak 283 borang daripada para pekerja di sektor awam Malaysia. Perisian SmartPLS digunakan untuk menilai kualiti data dan seterusnya menguji hipotesis kajian. Dapatan pengujian model persamaan struktur mengesahkan bahawa perhubungan antara sokongan pengurusan dengan pemindahan latihan adalah dipengaruhi secara tidak langsung oleh kesedaran pembelajaran. Seterusnya, kajian ini mengemukakan perbincangan, implikasi, dan kesimpulan kajian.
ABSTRACT
This study was conducted to measure the relationship between management support and transfer of training as well as to identify
the role of learning awareness as a mediator in the relationship. A survey using questionnaires was employed to collect data from 283
employees of the Malaysian public sector. SmartPLS package was used to assess the quality of data and to test the research hypotheses. The outcome of the structural equation modelling test confirmed the relationship between management support and transfer of training which was indirectly affected by learning awareness. This was followed by a discussion of the study, implications, and conclusion.
