Training and development has become an increasing and necessary tool of personnel and human resources management in any organization. The growth of an organization is likely to be limited more by the quality and number of its personnel than any other factors.
Because of the changing nature of business environment due to modern technology, organizations have to adopt themselves in order to survive and grow up. To achieve this, the need for effective training and development ought to be seriously emphasized, which will create an impartation of new skills, knowledge etc. to an individual, collective workers that will lead to enhancing productivity in an organization (Bala 1996). is of the view that Nigerians are not yet in effective control of the private sector of the economy because of neglect of staff training and development programmes by business organization. To this effect, there is need for training and development for staff to enhance efficiency and productivity. When there is training and development in an organization, it help the organization toward attainment of aims and objectives of the organisation.
Training has been defined by (Onasanya 1999, pg 104) as the systematic development of knowledge, skill, attitude and behavioural pattern required by an individual in order to perform adequately in a given task or job.
Development on the other hand is the broader scope of improvement, growth in abilities, attitude and personal traits. Once is properly trained it will affect on efficiency, morals and it reduce labour turnover and also give one a better knowledge, increase loyalty and environment for the achievement of the pre – set goals.
Furthermore, Novit (2001, pg 26) said training is often thought of as something which occurs in a class room or in an on the job encountered between someone who is teaching and someone who is being thought.
Training and development are very important to any organization that undergoes it and when it is correctly done, it will bring the following benefits to the organization and individuals.
• It can remove performance deficiencies of an employee, which lead to better performance of the employee, and of course the organization will be more effective.
• Training and Development provide for succession. Personnel who are given adequate training and development can easily replace an employee that has been transferred, promoted or discharged.
• It promotes industrial relations. A well training work team is more likely to respond positively to industrial system and discipline.
