2.3. Evaluation of human resource training work at ÊMM Hue Hotel through survey form

To evaluate the quality of human resource training at ÊMM Hue Hotel, I conducted a survey to collect information on the content related to the research topic. The survey used a Likert scale - 5 levels from 1 to 5 (completely disagree - completely agree) to evaluate the criteria and training methods applied at the hotel. In addition, there were questions to collect personal information of each person about age, gender, seniority, and job position.

By gender


Of the total 35 employees surveyed, 18 were male and 17 were female, accounting for 51.5% and 48.6%. The ratio is almost equal in the number of male and female employees currently working at the hotel.

By age


The number of employees under 25 years old accounts for the highest proportion of 40%, employees from 25 to 35 years old account for 28.6%, employees from 35 to 45 years old account for 17.1% and the remaining 14.3% are employees over 45 years old. The number of young employees accounts for a high proportion, suitable for the job requirements of the hotel industry. This is the group that needs job training, new employees without practical work experience, or new graduates.

By seniority


The proportion of employees with working experience from 1 to 3 years is the highest, reaching 31.4%. Employees with working experience from 3 to 5 years account for 28.6%, employees with working experience less than 1 year account for 25.7%. The current employees at the hotel are mostly young, with little or no experience, and short working time, so they need to be trained on the job to gain more skills to work at the hotel.


2.3.1. Assessing reliability using Cronbach's alpha scale

Cronbach's Alpha test is a test to analyze and evaluate the reliability of the scale. The purpose of Cronbach's Alpha test is to find out whether the observed variables measure the same concept or not. The value of the contribution is reflected through the Corrected Item - Total Correlation coefficient. Through that, we can eliminate inappropriate variables in our research model. Accordingly, the correlation coefficient is the standard to evaluate whether a variable really contributes value to the factor or not, the total correlation coefficient must be greater than 0.3. If the observed variable has a total correlation coefficient of less than 0.3, you must remove it from the evaluation factor.


Normally, a Cronbach's alpha of 0.8 or higher is a good measurement scale and from 0.7 to 0.8 is a usable scale. And in cases where the measurement concept is new or new to the respondent, from 0.6 to 0.7 can be used. (Cortina, 1993; Nunnally & Bernstein, 1994).
