The Role Of Training On Employee Performance In Private Sector: A Case Study Of Kagando Rural Development Centre.

ABSTRACT

The study was carried out to know the role of training on employee performance in private sector

a case study of Kagando rural development in Kasese district western ·uganda. The researcher

used the following objectives of research on his search for relevant information. To examine the

training policies and procedures applied in Kagando rural development Centre, to establish the

relationship between training and employee perfo1mance among employees of Kagando rnral

development Centre and finally to identify measures of employee performance in Kagando rural

development Centre.

The problem in question for conducting the research was that though much was put in to ensure

training of employees in Kagando Rural Development Centre, the perfonnance of employees

was still poor due to inefficient training techniques that leads to low productivity and

demonization of employees leading to poor perfo1mance and poor service delivery in Kagando

Rural Development Centre, and so the researcher was prompted to find out why or whether

there is an effect of training on the performance of employees at Kagando Rural Development

Centre. Data was collected using questioners, observations and documentary reviews as the

instrnments. These instruments helped me to get reliable data from employees, conveniently and

witl10ut bias.

It was found out that in Kagando Rural Development Centre, the identification of training needs

are the most preferred procedure to improve the level of employees performance. In other words,

instrnctional design, training evaluation, and training budgets are some of those that are used in

the organization to improve employee perfonnance. This one plays a very vital role in training

and grooming employees who hence brings about an improvement in Performance.

Training affects pe1f01mance mainly in a positive way in that employees are able to attain the

required skills for them to perform batter; they are also exposed to new techniques th~r are

prevailing due to globalization and developments that take place.

Therefore I recommend that Kagando Rural Development Centre should intensify on the training given to their employees and also ensures that the best training techniques are used in order to improve on the perfo1mance of employees in the hospital.
