Abstract
The study on the effect of training on employee performance was carried out from
Observer Media Limited to establish the various types and methods of training carried
out and why performance assessment is observed in order to establish the relationship
between training and performance assessment. To comprehend this, the study
reviewed literature from various scholars for qualification of the findings through use of a
descriptive study analysis administered on a sample of 50 employees both 'full time and
part time employees.
The study revealed that the company carried both on-the-job and off the job training
techniques but specifically concentrated on the on-the-job training to cut costs. It was
further established that training aided to motivate employees because it served as a job
security when they anticipated future promotion and thus exercised maximally the skills
acquired through training. This keeps the company in a profitable and competitive
position.
It was concluded that training is necessary. because it brings about overall growth of the
