• Under which circumstances is training not transferable from company to company?

• From a management perspective, is it ever disadvantageous to hire individuals who have been previously trained at other companies? Why or why not?

• How much can the company culture of one company affect the training required at a different company?

Write your initial response in 300-500 words. Your response should be thorough and address all components of the discussion question in detail, include citations of all sources, where needed, according to the APA Style, and demonstrate accurate spelling, grammar, and punctuation
