Abstract
The study sought to establish the effect of employee training on job pe1formance in
organizations and was driven by three objectives. These were; to investigate forms of
training offered to staff at T ANAP A, to analyze the effect of training on job performance
at TANAPA and to examine the impact of absence of training on job performance
To achieve these objectives, the researcher sampled one hundred thirty three
(respondents).
The research was guided by three research questions. The first question sought to
establish the fonns of training offered to staff at TAN AP A. Question two sought to
establish the effects of training on job perfmmance at TANAPA and the third question
sought to establish the impact of absence of training on job performance.
Findings from the study show that majority of the respondents (91.3 percent) strongly
agreed that training improved their attitude towards work, thereby boosting their
enthusiasm to work better, while 6.5 percent agreed and 2.2 percent strongly disagreed.
Study findings further show that majority of the respondents (97.8 percent) felt that
training enabled them to know that they were valued as assets to the company they were
working for and not liabilities, while 2.2 percent agreed.
The recommendations are; there is need to tackle existing divisions in accessing training
opportunities in the work place. Research findings on training a T ANAP A are extremely
useful for guiding those with responsibility for national skills policy in identifying areas
where skill gaps are most acute in relation to particular occupations and sectors.
There is need to design effective training activities the first step in the instructional
design process is the most crucial process in which it has to be properly and correctly
conducted.
