IMPACT OF TRAINING PROGRAMS ON EMPLOYEE DEVELOPMENT IN PRIVATE INSTITUTIONS IN SAGAR, MADHYA PRADESH (MP)

Abstract

This research study focuses on examining the impact of training programs on employee development in private institutions in Sagar, Madhya Pradesh (MP). The research population consists of employees working in private schools, colleges, and training institutions in Sagar MP. Due to the large population size, a sample of 422 employees was selected using a simple random sampling technique. The data was collected through a structured questionnaire, which included closed-ended questions with Likert scale response options. Descriptive statistics and inferential statistics were used to analyze the data. Descriptive statistics helped summarize and describe the characteristics of the sample and the variables under study, while inferential statistics, such as t-tests, were used to determine significant differences between groups. The results showed that the majority of respondents were satisfied with the training programs and believed that they had a positive impact on their personal and professional development. There were no significant differences in perceptions of training effectiveness among different groups. Data cleaning and analysis were conducted using statistical software like SPSS. Frequencies, percentages, means, and standard deviations were calculated to summarize the data. Hypothesis testing was performed to assess the relationship between training and employee development. The results supported the hypothesis that training has a positive effect on staff growth in private institutions in Sagar MP. The study also identified potential challenges and limitations of training programs, such as small sample size, self-report bias, time limitations, and contextual factors specific to Sagar MP. Ethical considerations were taken into account to protect the rights and welfare of the participants.
