Summary/Abstract: Training programmes enable employees to develop general and firm-specific competences. In companies that operate on international markets, such programmes also provide the transfer of best practices, routines and procedures between the parent firm and subsidiary. Given the importance of human capital in building sustainable competitive advantage, the training process should be professionally designed and executed. Operating on the domestic market makes it easier to properly design and execute training than it is for companies entering foreign markets. The article presents the results of research that sought to verify the professionalisation of training in 50 Polish companies entering foreign markets. General guidelines for how the process should be executed and the People Capability Maturity Model were used to evaluate the training.
