Abstract

This study was conducted to examine the mediating role of motivation to learn in the relationship between supervisor’s role and transfer of competency. Data were collected through in-depth interview and survey questionnaires. For the survey method, 100 usable questionnaires were collected from technical employees who have worked at the Technical Division, Dewan Bandaraya Kuching Utara, Sarawak (DBKU). The outcomes of stepwise regression analysis show that the inclusion of motivation to learn in the analysis had increased the effect of supervisor’s role (i.e., support and communication) on transfer of competency. This result demonstrates that motivation to learn does acts as a full mediating role in training management model of the organization. In addition, implications of this study to training management theory and practice, methodological and conceptual limitations, as well as directions for future research are elaborated.
