Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

Peer support is important to transfer because if everyone is involved in the training process, it continues beyond the classroom. Additionally, peer pressure can be a strong motivator and you want that pressure to be toward doing the learned behavior, not against it.

Supervisor support is important because if supervisors set goals and reinforce appropriate behaviors learned in training, it will facilitate transfer.
