The aim of this study was to investigate the moderating variables of training design and delivery, as well as their subsequent impacts on training outcomes: reaction, learning, intention to transfer learning, behaviour and results. The study was conducted at three separate times (before, immediately after training and 2–3 months after training). A simple sampling method were used to select employees (n1=406, n2= 402, n3=391) who worked for Omani national oil and gas companies and who had participated in health and safety training. A structural equation model was used to validate the research model. The results showed that pre-training intervention and activities were related to expectations about training outcomes. Moreover, the results indicated that trainer performance and behaviour were related to reaction and learning. Finally, training content and objectives were predictors of behaviour.
