Questionnaires were the main instrument used for data collection. The data was analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 20.0. The study results indicate that the methods used to facilitate training and development at COLTEK were seminars, conferences, discussion methods, induction programmes, problem solving methods, lectures and workshops, on-the job training programmes, off-the-job training programmes, job rotation and job transfers, job instruction training and orientation, and coaching/ mentoring methods were used to facilitate training and development initiatives. Moreover, training and development programmes helped employees to vary their methods of solving problems at the workplace. Also, training and development has positively affected employees working relationship among colleagues and broadened their career progression opportunities.
