PROBLEMS OF STAFF TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT IN NIGERIA COMPANIES

ABSTRACT

Training and development is a necessary factor in the attainment of organizational objectives of any organization. In every organization exists some form training and development programme. In Nigeria with the attainment of independence in 1960, the indigenization Decree and the current economic crises resulting mainly from over-dependence on oil revenue, the manpower has to be trained and developed in terms of quality and quantity so that they can effectively and efficiently control the commanding height of our economy and steer the economy of its present crises and backwardness to prosperity. The federal government of Nigeria has risen to this, by providing the National Council for management education and training and the centre for management development training schemes. This is important because it directs training and development towards national need and aspiration. In NITEL PLC there is already a formalized system of staff training and development in the organization to help it attain its objectives. This project paper is set for highlight the problems of staff training and development in the company and also to offer solutions to these problems.
