Furthermore, this attempted to determine if there is a significant relationship between learning transfer traits, modes, and challenges and that professional productivity as to mentoring, personal leadership, and self-efficacy. Using a descriptive correlational method, it involved 145 teachers from the five big schools in Sariaya West District during the modular distance learning. A survey questionnaire was utilized to know how the learning transfer traits, modes, and challenges affect the professional productivity of the teachers. The results revealed that there is a significant relationship between learning transfer traits, modes, and challenges and that professional productivity as to mentoring, personal leadership, and self-efficacy.
