    This study was undertaken to assess human resource development practice and challenges in Commercial Bank of Ethiopia (CBE) Northe Addis Ababa District. Both primary and secondary data were collected. Primary data collected through questionnaires and interview. The questionnaire was distributed to 358 employees of the bank working in North Addis district in which 322 completed and returned. Questionnaire was distributed to the employees on the basis of simple random sampling based on respondents willingness and cooperation and convenience sampling techniques were used to select managers and HR experts for interview. Data analyzed using descriptive stastics based on qualitative and quantitative method of research design. The findings revealed that CBE has strength in assign competent trainers and allocate adequate facilities for training and development. Nevertheless, the bank has major weakness especially with regards to training need assessment, and training design and evaluation. Further, the opportunities were not given to employees to participate in the training and development practice program. Lack of proper implementation of career development, lack of clarity of performance evaluation criteria and manager related problems are the most serious problem identified at CBE. The researcher recommends that training needs assessment, design and evaluation techniques should be modified and applied. Proper career development and performance appraise should be practice. Finally top management should support each human resource development activities to achieve its objective effectively.
