Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
Vertical transfer refers to the transfer of new skills and behaviours to improve overall organizational performance. Therefore, if an organization is specifically concerned about this type of transfer, they are focused on whether changes in trainee behaviour and performance will have a positive impact on the organization as a whole. A, B, and D are not necessarily incorrect, but they are not as specific to the scenario described in the question.
