The study adopted the descriptive-analytical approach, and data was collected using a questionnaire with a size of (131) managers. The data was analyzed using the SPSS program. The results showed a statistically significant effect of organizational learning dimensions (knowledge acquisition, information distribution, organizational memory, and shared vision) on training quality. It was also found that the combined dimensions of organizational learning had an effect on training quality in its individual dimensions (training content and design, trainer competence, training environment and resources, training transfer, and evaluation and feedback mechanisms). However, Organizational learning; however, did not have an effect on the dimension of training transfer, as demonstrated in the fifth hypothesis. The study recommended that Jordanian insurance companies strategically focus on fostering a culture of organizational learning, linking the activities of knowledge acquisition, information distribution, and interpretation directly to training processes. Additionally, it suggested improving training transfer mechanisms by providing a supportive environment that enables trainees to apply the knowledge and skills acquired.</p> Jihad Y.
