INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Training and development have become a very important and pivotal
phenomenon in most organization including the civil service. As is well
known, it is important to observe that in the civil service, for
example, productivity and output are functions of the employee’s
abilities and these abilities are enhance through training and
retraining. To sustain this tempo, the Delta State Civil Service has
established the Staff Training Centre where courses and training
programmes in the Secretarial Cadre are mounted for serving officers.
In addition to the above, officers are deliberately encouraged to embark
on programmes and innovations are aimed at improving the overall
performance of the employees on their jobs, which in the long run will
lead to increased productivity and increase job satisfaction.
Also, training and development would lead to reduced supervision and
increased motivation of staff in Delta State University, Asaba Campus.

Ekakitie (2009) state that training involves the process of developing
skills and training concepts, rules or attitudes to increase the
effectiveness of doing a particular job.
Sikula (1970) state that development is a long term educational process
that utilizes a systematic and organized procedure by which management
personnel learn concepts and theoretical knowledge for general purposes.

others, the facilities and equipment to perform are lacking.
In such a situation, the employee though may have been trained would
still not be able to perform, thus making the job uninteresting, and not

though the employees may have been trained, the relevant computer
accessories and mechanical tools are not provided.
