Abstract

This paper thinks that we can improve the knowledge absorptive capacity of organizations and their employees through training. After theoretical analysis of knowledge absorptive theory and training activities, it is believed that organizations can take the following measures to improve the knowledge absorptive capacity: (1) set up a support network of trainees to encourage them to exchange their learning experience with each other and successfully apply it; (2) improve students' self-efficacy and reduce psychological barriers to learning; (3) support employees in applying the knowledge and skills learned in training at work and allow them to make mistakes in practice by their supervisor; (4) during the training, the problems often encountered by trained employees are used as cases for analysis; (5) choose the technical gatekeepers in the organization as the priority training object.
