Abstract

The study examined the link amid employee training and development (T&D) and organisational performance of selected private universities in Ogun State. In solving this challenge, this study employed survey research design. Copies of the questionnaire were administered to three hundred and twenty-two (322) respondents (teaching and non-teaching staff of Bells University of Technology and Covenant University), out of which three hundred and thirteen (313) were correctly completed. Descriptive statistics of tables and percentages were used for data classification and inferential statistics of linear regression for testing of the hypothesis. The findings revealed that the increase in training and development will result to an increase in organisational performance [x1 = 0.42, p<0.05]. The study confirms that employee retention strategy of training and development is a must for organisations who wishes to improve or attain their desired state of performance. The study, therefore, recommends that the Management of Tertiary Institutions should invest heavily in training and development for their employees which would, in turn, boost organisational performance.
