The Mediating Effect of Training Infrastructure on Teaching Methodology and Effective Implementation

Paterson Lim Encabo

Abstract: The study examines the effect of training infrastructure as a mediating variable in the relationship between teaching methodology as the predictor and effective implementation as the outcome in a virtual training environment. The Baron and Kenny model was adopted to test the hypotheses developed in the study. This is an exploratory study to know how the virtual training infrastructure affects effective implementation and, if so, by how much compared to teaching methodology. The study finds out that both the teaching methodology and training infrastructure affect effective implementation, with training infrastructure having a more significant effect. Since hybrid working condition is already acceptable in the business environment, companies should invest in virtual training infrastructure to ensure their training is effective.

Key words: methodology, training infrastructure, effective implementation, virtual training environment
