MURRAY KIERNAN, Stephen; CASTANO, Víctor Manuel  y  AGUADO CORTES, César. Training Between Neighbors: Can a Successful Training System Be Developed Between Companies Located in the Same Locality?. The Anáhuac j. [online]. 2022, vol.22, n.2, pp.42-71.  Epub 20-Feb-2023. ISSN 2683-2690.  https://doi.org/10.36105/theanahuacjour.2022v22n2.02.

The article focuses on the question: Can you create a successful training system between companies located geographically close to each other? The topics are: the possibility of developing a training system within companies (or “intrafirm” training); the positive impact on performance of training derived from geographical proximity; the nature of the interfirm training group; the role in the training offer of foreign and multinational companies; and finally the role of training providers. There is a close analysis of technical and vocational education and training in developing countries, particularly in terms of such important topics as in-company training, interfirm and intrafirm training practices, and training provision as it is related to costs, results, wages and innovations. There is also a degree of focus on more specialized fields such as division of labor, upstream and downstream training, training appropriability, training cluster and spillovers, policies of local and international companies, the role of training providers, and tacit and codified training.
