In the future the Human Factors specialist can expect to plan and conduct economic analysis-oriented training studies called cost and training effectiveness analyses (CTEA). This paper enumerates basic CTEA principles and describes a basic rifle marksmanship training study to illustrate their application.

The research has been conducted to understand the training effectiveness where health professional participates for training who work under the Bangladesh Government. The research used the Kirkpatrick model. The paper has collected data form, 323 participants. The research measured the training effectiveness using survey questions. The multiple regression techniques have used to conduct analysis of the collected data. The findings of the research revealed that the training effectiveness has been affected significant positively by training motivation, trainer qualification, and training design. Moreover, the training environment does not have significant role on the impacting of the training effectiveness respectively. The study has specific recommendations based on the above findings as the bench mark to improve the effectiveness training in Bangladesh and the regions.

Resumen:La transferencia de la formación, junto a los factores que la facilitan o la inhiben, forma parte de los retos a los que se enfrentan las instituciones universitarias. Teniendo como foco la formación en TIC que recibe el profesorado universitario, en este trabajo se analiza la influencia que tienen los factores relativos a la formación y al propio participante en la posterior transferencia al puesto de trabajo. Se ha llevado a cabo una investigación transeccional de corte correlacional en la que han participado 155 docentes de tres universidades catalanas que habían pasado por un proceso formativo en TIC. En cuanto al diseño de la formación, los resultados apuntan a que una formación diseñada según el contexto real de participante influye significativamente en la posterior puesta en práctica de lo aprendido. En cuanto al participante, los resultados sugieren que lo que influye en la transferencia es la capacidad de integrar tecnología, pedagogía y disciplina (TPACK). Se concluye el artículo con una serie de recomendaciones con ánimo de facilitar la transferencia de las formaciones en TIC que se ofertan al profesorado universitario. Abstract:The transfer of training is, together with the factors involved, one of the challenges that universities have to face. Focusing on the teacher training in ICT, in this work we analyse the role of individual and training design factors on transfer. A cross-sectional correlation investigation was performed, participating 155 teachers from three Catalan universities who had been trained in ICT. As far as the training design, the results show that a training designed according to the real context of the participant is the biggest influential factor on transfer. Also, the results suggests that the capacity of the participant to integrate technology, pedagogy and content (TPACK) is an influential factor on transfer. The technological competence, which is similar to instrumental ability, obtained the 4th position in the correlation analysis. This paper concludes with recommendations in order to facilitate the transfer of teacher training in ICT.

Often operational equipment is considered to be the most effective and valid training equipment. However, this is not true in every instance. In fact, sometimes it may be undesirable to use real equipment for training if suitable simulators are available. For example, the use of operational equipment has several disadvantages which include (1) high costs, (2) limitation on practice of varied aspects of tasks, and (3) safety hazards. Practical decisions in the use of training devices depend upon compromises between economic and training objectives. A trainer need not duplicate operational equipment to have training value. Technical reports pertaining to flight simulator transfer of training studies available from the Defense Documentation Center are reviewed.
