Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of training on employees’ job performance in Commercial Bank of Ethiopia: the case of Addis Ababa city branches. It assessed the training dimensions such as needs identifications, on-the-job-training, off-the-job training and training evaluations and examined its effect on the job performance of employees. The study used primary data sources. Simple random sampling technique was used and self-administered questionnaire was distributed to 386 sample employees and collected the relevant primary data sources from 343 respondents. SPSS version 20 was used to analyze the data gathered. Descriptive analysis with the help of tables and percentages was used to describe and analyze the data. Correlation and regression analysis was also used to see the relationships and effects between training and employees’ job performance. The findings in the descriptive analysis revealed that there were lack of training need identification methods, lack of adequate evaluating training effectiveness, inadequate training delivery methods except lecture, discussion and somehow coaching. However, Pearson correlation results revealed that off-the-job training had high positive correlations (r = 0.511, p <0.01) and on-the-job training had moderate positive correlation (r = 0.372, p <0.01) with employees’ job performance. Finally, the regression analysis revealed that 27.7% of the variation in employees’ job performance can be explained by the independent variables with significant relationship (p<0.05) and positively related to employees’ job performance.
