Based on a literature review from English language journals related to the field of human resource development (HRD), the conceptual framework for this study was derived from the models developed by American Society for Training and Development (ASTD) for HRD practice. This study compared and analyzed the similarities and differences in HRD roles, key work dimensions, and practitioner competencies through the competitive vision of different countries, including China, US, UK, Germany, Japan, India, Singapore, and Korea. This comparative study not only described the HRD position of Chinese enterprises under the international HRD coordinates but also indicated how these differences inspire HRD in China.
