Learning theory proposes that learning outcomes depend on the characteristics of actors involved in the process. Network theory adds additional dimension to studying learning process. According to several network scholars, relations between learning actors also affect their behaviour and performance. We present a framework for knowledge transfer process that allows a study of how results of a transfer are affected by the characteristics of source and recipient and connections between them. We apply this model to the survey of learning process within two European projects leading to different outcomes of the process. Results of the survey reveal close connection between the two sets of indicators and point to the holistic approach to examining knowledge transfer process.
