In organizational theory, knowledge transfer is the practical problem of transferring knowledge from one part of the organization to another. 

Like knowledge management, knowledge transfer seeks to organize, create, capture or distribute knowledge and ensure its availability for future users. It is considered to be more than just a communication problem. 

If it were merely that, then a memorandum, an e-mail or a meeting would accomplish the knowledge transfer. 

Knowledge transfer is more complex because knowledge resides in organizational members, tools, tasks, and their subnetworks and much knowledge in organizations is tacit or hard to articulate. 

Intimacy, dedication and committement given the vision of the company or organization which contains the knowledge, may be required from the students for knowledge transfer to occur smoothly.
And thus; to be able to effectively transfer knowledge among people, there must be social activities, rewards, communication stratagies, motivetional oral speech or teachings, and engaging into cultural activities which are done with the aim of simplifying the art of knowledge transfer.

The subject has been taken up under the title of knowledge management since the 1990s.
