| Sammanfattning: | For the training processes to be considered effective, it is necessary that after the qualification courses or processes, what has been taught is effectively used in the workplace. This article discusses this issue and aims to present a statistical analysis regarding the transference of knowledge acquired by the construction workers in training programs. Concerning the data collection and verification of knowledge transference, the research consisted of the development of tools to measure whether the acquired knowledge was being effectively used by the workers in three building sites, from three different construction companies, through Direct Observation Protocols (POD) as well as quantitative analysis developed through statistical tests. The first analysis was related to two different moments of data collection, considered as a test and a retest, verifying if there were differences between the knowledge transference processes, by checking the differences in the mean scores obtained through the measuring instruments (T- Test). Differences among the training modules were also analyzed through statistical tests of comparison of means (Tukey HSD Test and Bonferroni Test). The results indicate that regarding the two different moments of analysis (test and retest), the score values tended not to change, meanwhile, regarding the training modules, the analysis identified differences in the mean values. Overall, among the conclusions, it is possible to highlight the importance of conducting evaluations of the knowledge transference in training related to the construction activity, so that it is possible to analyze and improve the various instructional methods and, thus, make the training become more effective. |
