CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND TO THE STUDY
Staff training and development serves as a bed rock and important thing in any tertiary institution because it help employees of an organization to acquire basic skills needed for actualization of their various activities effectively.
It is obvious that the absence of staff training and development facilitates to update the knowledge of the employees in an organization which would affect the competence of employees in handling their job effectively.
Staff training and development is a necessity because it helps to maintain a high quality skilled labour that can perform a given task in an organization, mainly because the complexity of organizational programmes coupled with the challenging nature of activities expected to be performed by employees required the need for training of employees in order to improve their skills and performance towards the accomplishment of organizational goals. For this reason mentioned about, it is very glaring that training and development must be encouraged in the organization in order to improve the productivity of the employee
Training and development of works are vital programmes necessary for the growth, efficiency and sustenance of any viable organization. This is because workers would be prepared to handle their job perfectly if they are adequately trained and developed.
In some organization, training and development are very informal and unstructured whether or not the system is to invest in the education and development of its employees by formulating and implementing a human resources development strategy that includes programmes, objectives and procedures for development and off the job training and other learning experience.
It is important to note that staff training should be accorded much prominence. This perhaps might be borne of the saying that ‘’training and development of labour force is their corner stone of any organizations survival and needs a positive approach to objective realization’’.
It is the responsibility of the personnel department to formalize training policies and draw up training programmes for the various levels of workers in any organization, however all line managers should endeavour to contribute to the training of their subordinates on the job.
The purpose of training is to give employees at all level sufficiently and prepare them for the higher responsibilities.
The advancement in modern technology calls for training and development of staff in order that they might be able to cope with challenges in the job situations, such as the introduction of the new machinery and equipment the training and experience from school of learning is not enough for the workers to the early month of employment.
Training has always been an essential part of human life particularly in the working environment workers perform better if they are trained in the skills necessary for their jobs, and managers are better leaders if they are knowledgeable about happy productive staff. The concept of training predates history. One of the earliest types of training was on the job training (OJT) which is still in wide use today. On the job training (OJT) involves learning the skills. The experienced workers teaches the inexperienced how to perform tasks. This types of training is very useful and extremely cost effective as it requires no organized lessons, workshops or programmes of the job site. Trianign through the use of conceptual case studies began in China in 4th century B.C. Taosta and confusionist presented parables to their students and asked them to contemplate possible solution to them. The case study is in wide use today, mostly in professional schools. It is an effective tool to encourage learners to think philosophically about difficult and problematic situations without having to experience them first hand as time went on, modern theories of psychology, training and staff skilled, knowledgeable, and motivated Abraham Maslows and Fredrick Herzberg developed separate but related motivational theories that are often used when developing staff training programmes their theories are concerned with motivational factors related to career and personal growth.

SUMMARY, CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
5.1Introduction
This chapter gives a summary of the study with conclusions based upon the results of the study and recommendations for the way forward.
5.2Summary of Findings
This research examined the effect of training and development on employees’ performance, motivation, retention and morale, a case of RoseMore Hotel. The research had the objectives to find out how training and development of employees contribute to the achievement of the goals of the Hotel. Again it found out whether there were organizational issues that constrain training and development in the Hotel. Further more it investigated how training and development needs of employees were determined.
To achieve these objectives a sample of 50 senior staff were selected and questionnaire were administered. This was further supported with an interview of the rector, registrar and finance officer of the Hotel. The study revealed the following interesting findings:
Firstly total respondents representing 100% indicated that training and development contributed to achieving effectiveness and efficiency of RoseMore Hotel goals. Additionally this same percentage mentioned that training and development has traditionally been used to ensure that, the right person is in the right job at the right time. Again the total respondentsrepresenting 100% said that there were organizational issues constraining training and development at RoseMore Hotel.
Further more, 60% of the sampled employees admitted that, impact of training on their work performance was excellent. They indicated also that, training content was relevant to achieving their personal needs, goals and self development. Below are the summary of findings itemised:
- A large number (60%) of the sampled employees admitted that impact of training on their work performance was excellent.
2.The study also revealed the training content was relevant to achieving their personal needs, goals and self development.
3.Total respondents representing 100% all indicated that training and development contributed to achieving effectiveness and efficiency of RoseMore Hotel goals.
4.Regarding analysis on the organizational issues constraining training and development at RoseMore Hotel, total respondents representing 100% indicated that there were organizational issues constraining training and development at A Poly.
5.The research also revealed that 40% indicated that the lack of top management support for the training and development at RoseMore Hotel was the main organizational issue, 20% said employees failure to understand the training needs of RoseMore Hotel whilst 10% said inability to gain the understanding and acceptance of employees.

7.All the 50 respondents representing 100% mentioned that that training and development has traditionally been used to ensure that the right person is in the right job at the right time.
5.3Conclusions
Based on the results of the study, it became clear that training and development strategy was a haphazardly carried out activity at RoseMore Hotel. Although the respondents were aware of the various aspects of training and development, there was no strategic framework in place as the basis for an operational plan for the training and development strategy even though all respondents indicated that training and development was part of the strategic business plan process of RoseMore Hotel.
Furthermore, it can be concluded that clear human resource management in general, and training and development in particular at RoseMore Hotel, should become more closely tied to the needs and strategies of RoseMore Hotel. As this occurs, training and development at RoseMore Hotel will be the thread that ties together all other activities and integrates these with the rest of the departments.
It became clear from respondents that the major organizational issue constraining training and development at RoseMore Hotel was lack of top management support for the training and development programs. Therefore RoseMore Hotel in its attempt to enhance employee performance, motivation, retention, and morale competition must endeavour to ensure effective training and development strategies across all departments.
5.4Recommendations
Based on the findings and conclusions, the following recommendations are outlined for addressing challenges identified as well as ways of improving training and development at RoseMore Hotel:
1.Training and development should be seen not only as the thread that ties together all human resource practices, but also as the instrument for establishing and signalling when and how work practices should change. In other words, employees of RoseMore Hotel should take on the role of organizational change agents (Beer & Walton, 1987). To be effective in this role, the HR manager will need to create a framework for making HR decisions based on RoseMore Hotel vision and strategic plan.
2.In order to position RoseMore Hotel for success, management must empower departments in the various branches to engage in training and development.
3.Some key examples of how departments can plan for the future training and development must be outlined in a document and should be used to help mitigate any negative impacts as a result of demographics, RoseMore Hotels priorities and competency requirements. The documents can also help ensure that RoseMore Hotel departments have what they need to get the job done, and that there is efficient matching of skills and competencies to departmental tasks, requirements and outcomes.
4.To better compete in the global market, RoseMore Hotel will need to create and implement corporate strategies to promote itself as a “preferred employer” – investing in progressive HR policies and programs with the goal of building a high-performing organization of engaged people, and fostering and creating a work environment where people want to work, not where they have to work.
5.Retention and attraction in today’s changing labour market requires RoseMore Hotel to look at the key drivers that are important to it and potential employees. Examples of these include offering employees:
•Diversified and Challenging Work
•An Attractive Compensation Package (not just salary)
•Advancement Opportunities
•Access to Continuous Learning
•Opportunities for Personal and Professional Growth
