Abstract

Human resource training has been highlighted in numerous studies as a solution for sustainable development and as a source of competitive advantage for enterprises. The training activities of enterprises are generally addressed in two aspects: conducting internal training and sending employees to participate in external training programs. Each of these approaches carries distinct significances for enterprises in specific contexts and should be considered by managers as strategic tools for enterprise development. In this study, the author focuses on analyzing the roles of internal training in enterprise development. Using a research approach primarily based on the synthesis and analysis of secondary data, the author identifies and clarifies two key roles of internal training: maintaining and developing human resources that meet enterprise requirements, and promoting economic development, increasing income, and fostering innovation. The findings of this study are meaningful for the author in orienting future research and enriching theoretical discussions on internal training within enterprises.
