Are we familiar with what transfer of learning is? Let me put it straight by splitting the term. We all know what encapsulates learning. It is acquiring a piece of information through either reading or experiencing it, like currently we are about to learn what ‘transfer of learning’ means. The transfer would be shifting something from one place to another. Bringing it all together, transfer of learning could be defined as where you carry over your learning from one space to another space. For example, here you are reading about transfer of learning which you could implement somewhere else. To make that a little more interesting, we have learned the alphabet as a kid in our schools as a part of our universal language English, and we take that learning to learn the other subjects provided to us in the English medium.

Hence the transfer of learning has to be efficient to utilize it to the maximum. The efficient kind of learning that we obtain can be expressed when we transfer it into our practice. The practical field where we exhibit our skills through learning in our workplaces. This is the core element we have been imbibed by our universities during our placements. We will be allowed to transfer our knowledge from our educational background to the practical ground with the assistance of the organization. And we popularly term it as ‘training’, contributing our learnings to the institutes.

In the crucial period when we are under training, ‘learning transfer’ could be a major advantage. As our ‘learning transfer’ results in our performance would make us stand out among the crowd, during the training period. It increases the chances of our job stability. The training course aims to equip us with the skills required for the job. It may involve modifying our current behaviour and abilities as per the requirements of the employer or enhancing the existing skillset. Hence, the training investment made on the employees will be displayed on their job competency. Therefore, there should be a match between the learning obtained by the employee during training and the job duties of the employee in the workspace.

“In a nutshell, training is a space for us to fly with the wings we get from learning, paint it colourfully to stand out as a rainbow”.

The motivation, and the modelling guide from our training period, all would play a role in determining the efficiency of learning transfer in our workplace. Our evolving workforce industry is enlarged, so it is our responsibility to escalate its standard in the form of our learning transfer.
