dc.description A Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for an Award of the Masters in Business Administration in Corporate Management of Mzumbe University.
dc.description This research was done with an objective of assessing the implementation of training programs in private sectors. The intension of this research is to add information on the available literature pertaining trainings that are conducted in private sector companies at the same time help TTPL and other private companies understand on how to better implement their training programs. Different sources of literature were used to assist in acquiring information for this research; books, other similar studies and surveys as well as the internet. The case study design helped to get in depth information on the subject at hand as questionnaires were distributed to employees of different calibers and interviews were conducted to those with rich information concerning trainings that would include the company‟s management as well as the Human Resources Personnel. This research is both qualitative and quantitative as it required finding out attitudes and numerical presentation of data obtained. The key findings include that the existence of the policy emphasizes the importance of maintaining a continuous learning program at TTPL but since employees at TTPL are not aware of the existence of this policy then the whole implementation of these trainings becomes a challenge because employees do not know the available opportunities offered. Other findings showed that employees at TTPL were not satisfied with the training program that currently existed and mostly this is due to the fact that the Management does not give major priority into training programs as it perceives training to be a minor issue to think about. The study recommends that before any planning, the specific training needs should be established to guide the whole training program so that each participant could agree and eventually gain from that particular training. This means that both parties; The company (TTPL) and its employees should play their part, TTPL‟s management should make sure that the existing training policy is implemented and the training program is followed at the same time more incentives should be linked to the implementation and participation of these trainings as a form of motivation for employees. Regardless, employees should also be proactive and make individual efforts to excel and take advantage every training opportunity that comes their way.
