| Abstract: | The purpose of this study is to identify the training practices and challenges of Agricultural
Transformation Institute. It looks through how training need assessment is conducted, how it is
designed, delivered and evaluated, and find out the major challenges of training. The research
used a descriptive research design. Both quantitative and qualitative research approaches are
applied in this study. The data were collected through a combination of both an interview with
human resource manager and a questionnaire addressed to the employees of the
organization.100 employees' responses were gathered using a Purposive sampling technique.
Descriptive statistics were employed to analyze the data. Findings show that there is a strong
association between training programs in ATI and the institute's staff performance that is both
positive and substantial. On the other hand, unavailability of funding, lack of Leadership focus
for training, assignment of employees in different locations, frequent field work and lack of
capacity are mostly considered as the factor that hinders training programs from becoming
successful. Increasing allocation of funds, increasing manpower and giving the necessary
awareness for supervisors about training are believed to solve the problems of the organization. |
