The standard economic theory predicts that firms will not
invest in general training (trained KSAOs are transferrable to other
organizations) and will under-invest in firm-specific training (trained KSAOs are
NOT transferrable to other organizations) because firms can lose training
investment to other firms if employees switch jobs. However, employer-sponsored
training is prevalent in practice. USE https://scholar.google.com/  Search for at 3 scholarly articles that
discuss the topic of when and whether employers should invest in employee
training.
After reviewing the articles, you will then write a

are the findings (results of the study)? Were the hypotheses supported?
f. What are
future directions for this type of research? Limitations of the research?
g.
Critique, critique, critique!!! Is there a better way to conduct this research?
