ABSTRACT
The study was undertaken at Accra Polytechnic on the topic “The effect of training and
Development on Employee Performance at Accra Polytechnic”.
The purpose of the study was to investigate whether training and development would have an
effect on the performance of employees with Accra Polytechnic as a case study. The
methodology that was used for the study was survey. Primary data was collected from a
sample of fifty (50) senior staff. Self – administered questionnaire was used in the collection
of data for analysis. The study revealed that there were organizational issues such as lack of
management support for training and development programmes, which constrained training
and development. It was also found that training and development had positive impact on
employees of the Polytechnic. The study recommended that in order for Accra Polytechnic to
be successful as the first choice Polytechnic in Africa, management must empower all
departments to engage in the training and development of employees to build potential and
strengthen employees’ competencies.
