To this end, primary and secondary sources are consulted to get the necessary information for the research. Questionnaires were distributed to samples of permanent employees of the company. In addition, the past three years training implementation reports of the company were used and a semi structured interview also held with the appropriate managers of the company. The result of the study discovered that currently, while the company has some training programs it does not have clear training policy and training plan. But this doesn’t mean that there is no any training practice totally within the company. It is also found that the company doesn’t allocate enough budgets for implementing training practice. In addition employees are not aware of the existing training programs & their objectives. The study result also showed that most of the employees are not satisfied with existing training programs in the company. It is also found out that there are no training facilities and no position for separate department that is responsible for human resource training in the organizational structure.
