Evaluation of Training in Organizations: An Empirical Investigation from a Developing Country

Abstract

Companies are under pressure to continuously improve the skills and knowledge of their employees through effective training programs. Knowledgeable and innovative workforce has become a very important source of competitive advantage. Therefore, companies should design, implement, and evaluate the best training programs that help employees increase their productivity. The paper studies the effect of training on employee performance, motivation, and turnover through a self-reported survey of 124 employees in Saudi private companies. It has been found that 65% of respondents attended various training programs in their actual job. The results also show that there is a positive relationship between training and performance of employees, confirming the literature that studied the impact of training on performance.
