This study aimed to develop a context-sensitive and locally grounded model for the effective training of prison wardens in the Islamic Republic of Iran. In terms of purpose, the study was applied-developmental, and methodologically, it employed an exploratory sequential mixed-methods design. In the qualitative phase, systematic grounded theory, following the Corbin and Strauss approach, was used. The participants comprised 21 experts, including nine university academics and 12 senior prison administrators or experienced prison wardens, who were selected through purposive and theoretical sampling. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed using open, axial, and selective coding. The trustworthiness of the findings was established through member checking and an assessment of coding stability. In the second phase, the same 21 experts evaluated the pairwise relationships among the components identified in the qualitative phase. Interpretive Structural Modeling was subsequently employed to determine the interrelationships and hierarchical levels of the components, while MICMAC analysis was used to examine their driving power and dependence. The qualitative analysis yielded 628 initial codes, 108 concepts, and 29 main and subcategories. Based on the paradigmatic model, deficiencies in the existing training system, the gap between professional knowledge and practical skills, and the absence of an effective evaluation system emerged as major factors influencing the training of prison wardens. The final model organized the identified categories into causal conditions, the central phenomenon, contextual and intervening conditions, strategies, and consequences. The results of the structural analysis further indicated that trainer competence, the use of educational technologies, and managerial motivation possessed strong driving power and played a foundational role in shaping and enhancing the effectiveness of the training system. The findings suggest that effective training for prison wardens requires an integrated, competency-based system aligned with the professional and organizational realities of prison administration. The proposed model may provide a practical framework for redesigning training policies, programmers, and processes, improving managerial decision-making and performance, and advancing the correctional and rehabilitative objectives of the prison system.
