Among this 43 are managers and 189 are non-managers employees, while 15 questionnaires were not returned and the data analyzed based on 41managers and 156 non- managers respondents who received training. The researcher used descriptive analysis with the help of percentages and frequencies to describe responses. The study discovered that the major weaknesses of the company in training and development practices being lack of regular needs assessment, the training methods mostly applied within the bank was off-the-job method, absence of well-established trainees evaluation practice at different phases, lack of training need assessment policy and procedure, and there was no clearly stated criteria for trainees’ selection. The strengths are the support provided by top management, the importance of training and development given by the bank & the bank’s training co-ordination. There were also well designed training programs and intensive induction programs. Therefore, the bank need to conduct training need assessment regularly, use in balance of on-the job and off-the job training methods, and need to have effective training and development evaluation, clearly stated trainees selection criteria, effective training and development policy and procedure, and effective need assessment policy.en_US
