Abstract: Purpose: Grounded in Bandura's self-efficacy theory, this study aims to examine the role of opportunity to perform, supervisory support and peer support on self-efficacy and training transfer. This study also aims to examine the moderating effect of gender. Design/methodology/approach: This study involved a cross-sectional survey of 639 employees from Indian organizations. Data analysis was conducted using structural equation modeling. To examine the moderating role of gender, a multigroup analysis was performed. Findings: This study found that opportunity to perform, supervisory support and peer support predict training transfer through self-efficacy. This study also found that self-efficacy is positively related with training transfer. Most of the relationships among the variables were stronger among male respondents compared to the female respondents. Originality/value: To the best of the authors' knowledge, this study stands among the pioneers that explores the role of self-efficacy and gender in training transfer within the context of an emerging economy, India.
