This study aims to compare the extent of effectiveness of training cognitive self-regulation and information technology on the organizational intelligence of employees in Ministry of Culture and Islamic Guidance. The statistical population consisted of all employees of Ministry of Culture and Islamic Guidance, which were 1050 staff in Tehran according to the statistics office of this ministry in 2017-2018. Given the semi-experimental nature of the research, 60 employees were chosen randomly and after matching based on the criteria of age, gender, and working background, they were assigned into three 20-indivudal groups. The first group was trained information technology(According to Bayir & Keser, 2009, the electronic government and computer for all(, while the second group was trained cognitive self-regulation(According to the sociological cognitive theory of Bandura, 1993), with the control group receiving no training. The experimental and control groups responded to Albrecht organizational intelligence questionnaire (2003). For data analysis, correlated t-test and covariance analyses were used. The data were analyzed by SPSS 22. The research findings suggested that the difference between the experimental groups and the control group is significant at 0.001 level. This means that both educational methods for training information technology and cognitive self-regulation have caused enhanced organizational intelligence, while no significant difference was observed between the experimental groups (p>0.05). This, suggests that both trainings have had the same effectiveness on organization intelligence.
