Abstract	This study explores the environmental factors that affect the transfer of training among technical education instructors in Nepal. In the exploration, a scale with 40 items was constructed by utilizing Delphi technique. Then, a survey was carried out on 251 instructors who completed instructional skills-related training. The result of Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) retained 26 items and showed six factors affecting the perceived transfer of training accounting for 58.8% of the total variance explained which are: (i) organizational transfer intervention, (ii) external monitoring and evaluation (M&E), (iii) local school governance, (iv) management support, (v) social support and, (vi) curriculum standard. Further using Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA), the study confirmed the model-fit of three constructs that affect training transfer: organizational transfer intervention, external M&E, and social support. The study concluded that the training transfer is affected by internal and external environmental factors, which are represented by two major driving forces of support and control. (As Provided).
