摘要：AbstractIn the era of fast transmission of knowledge and information, it is very important for organizations today to adopt or accept new technology, and find new ways of doing work in order to maintain or enhance their competitive position in the industry. The present study attempts to explore the engineers’ acceptance of Webinars as a training tool based on four beliefs about Webinars i.e. perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, computer self-efficacy and intention to use Webinars as a training tool. Data from 50 engineers in an electric company in the northern state of Malaysia with prior Webinars experience was obtained via survey method. The results showed that perceived ease of use (β = 0.70, p<0.01) and computer self-efficacy (β = 0.32, p<0.05) were positively related to the intention to use Webinars as a training tool whereas perceived usefulness was not significantly related to the intention to use Webinars. Furthermore, perceived ease of use (β = 0.78, p<0.01) was found to be a significant predictor of perceived usefulness. This goes to show that ease of use and computer self-efficacy are the two main drivers of intention to use Webinars as a training tool. Implications of the findings for practitioners are discussed further.
