In this study, we investigated the extent to which the transfer knowledge of CVET trainers can be increased through an intervention. Based on our conceptualization of transfer knowledge, which is a three-dimensional construct that includes knowledge about learner characteristics, training design and the work environment, we implemented a 5-week digital training programme (intervention) for CVET trainers. We employed a nonrandomized pretest‒posttest design to investigate <i>N</i> = 81 trainers and examined the effects of the training programme on trainers' transfer knowledge. While 47 trainers participated in the training programme (experimental group), 34 trainers were included in the control group and received no intervention. As hypothesized, we found a significant interaction effect on the development of trainers' transfer knowledge (<span></span><math>\u0000 <semantics>\u0000 <mrow>\u0000 \u0000 <mrow>\u0000 <msubsup>\u0000 <mi>η</mi>\u0000 \u0000 <mi>p</mi>\u0000 \u0000 <mn>2</mn>\u0000 </msubsup>\u0000 </mrow>\u0000 </mrow>\u0000 </semantics></math> = 0.386).

The main points encompass understanding the details of the ARM process and identifying perceptual discrepancies in rating the level of transfer between trainees and supervisors. The investigation aims to contribute valuable insights into refining ARM process dissemination strategies for improved agricultural resilience. Employing a cross-sectional mixed-method approach, this research utilized independent <i>t</i>-tests for quantitative data analysis, facilitated by SPSS software. Furthermore, qualitative data underwent meticulous thematic content analysis conducted through Atlas.ti. The participant demographic characteristics, showcasing a balanced gender distribution among trainees and supervisors, highlighted the cohort's diverse educational backgrounds and qualifications. Trainees exhibited varying educational levels, while supervisors mainly possess advanced degrees, signalling their potential sway in mentoring dynamics. The study uncovered notable gaps within the ARM process framework, notably the absence of comprehensive risk assessment, diversified strategies, formal monitoring mechanisms, and the incorporation of behavioural and financial elements. Emphasizing collaboration and proactive approaches toward addressing long-term risks, particularly climate change adaptation, emerged as pivotal components. Significantly, the study revealed marked differences in perceptions between supervisors and trainees regarding ARM skill transfer, accentuating the necessity for tailor-made training initiatives. The implications drawn from this study underline the critical necessity for customized training modules that consider the distinct needs and perceptions of supervisors and trainees. Furthermore, fostering enhanced collaboration and advocating for a comprehensive approach to mitigating long-term agricultural risks, notably the impacts of climate change, emerge as imperative strategies. These implications carry profound significance in refining risk management practices, bolstering agricultural resilience and ensuring sustainable agricultural practices.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":46817,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Training and Development","volume":"29 2","pages":"231-242"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-02-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143897142","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, a global transition to a low-carbon economy that is inclusive, equitable, and socially responsible can be achieved through the contributions of individuals who are equipped with green skills to support the SDGs. Using a qualitative research approach and qualitative content analysis (QCA), the current study examined how microlearning could serve as a strong instructional approach and tool to promote the development of green skills among individuals and the green skills ecosystem. The findings show that microlearning, which is characterised by technology-mediated processes, multi-facilitation approaches, and bite-sized pieces of information, could be effectively and adequately used to support the development of green skills across businesses and substantially reduce pollution, biodiversity loss, and environmental deterioration. The study concludes by arguing that by leveraging the important features of microlearning, such as the brevity of learning experiences, clarity of content, easy accessibility to learning resources, and the ability of trainees to combine their work schedules with the training programme, many individuals will be equipped with green skills to contribute to the achievement of the SDGs.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":46817,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Training and Development","volume":"29 2","pages":"209-221"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-02-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143897081","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By using a vignette study, we focus on the selection by companies that offer training. Our results show that excellent grades in the school-leaving certificate of graduates with only an intermediate school-leaving qualification or an entrance qualification for a university of applied sciences improve their chances of entering a VET programme in comparison to more highly qualified competitors with very poor grades. One far more effective way is to upgrade their qualification at a vocational school in combination with professional knowledge relevant to the field of the desired VET programme. In particular, this protects graduates with an intermediate school-leaving qualification from a devaluation of their qualification when applying for a VET programme with a high proportion of applicants who have a university entrance qualification. However, there is a negative effect on their chances if they upgrade their qualification in a vocational field that is not relevant to the desired VET programme.

While necessary to a degree, being responsive to such needs is not a sufficient goal to which VET systems should be directed, enacted and judged. They also need to: (i) be responsive to the communities served by those systems and (ii) play a role in bringing about change in those communities through supporting innovations, extending existing economic activities and building capacities at the local level. Given the scope of these roles, VET, perhaps more than any other educational sector, requires effective localised social, administrative and educational infrastructures to achieve such outcomes. Social infrastructure includes partnerships that support work placements, work experiences, employment opportunities and articulate local enterprises' requirements. Administrative infrastructure includes the intentional organisation and enactment of vocational educational provisions and their certification. Educational infrastructure includes the provision and alignment of expertise and resources to achieve these outcomes, including those of teachers and the ability to extend their efforts beyond the educational institution. These forms of local infrastructure are proposed as being essential for achieving five contemporary purposes of VET: (i) engaging young people with VET; (ii) assisting them in identifying occupations to which they are suited; (iii) preparing them for occupations; (iv) continuing education across working life to meet changing needs and goals and (v) aligning workplace innovations with workers' learning. In advancing that proposal, this paper draws on the reviews of literature and findings from a three-decade-long programme of research in VET provisions in countries with both developed and developing economies, to make a case for VET going beyond responsiveness to meet local communities' needs, advance their capacities and extend their social and economic potentials.</p>","PeriodicalId":46817,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Training and Development","volume":"29 2","pages":"140-148"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-02-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/ijtd.12351","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143897032","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
