dc.description.abstractThis study examined the effectiveness of training programmes in Public Organizations. It involved case study design where Morogoro Municipal Council was selected. The study was guided by four research objectives which are: To determine factors affecting implementation of a training programme in MMC; to find out how trainees perceive the implementation of a training programme in MMC and lastly to suggest strategies to be employed by MMC in the implementation of a training programme. Data collection methods comprised of interview, questionnaires, and documentary review. Random sampling and purposive sampling techniques were used to select a sample of 77 respondents for the study. Respondents were chosen from ordinary employees, heads of departments and the head of Human Resource Management on behalf of the director of Morogoro Municipal Council. After data analysis the findings of the study revealed that, most of the employees were aware of the existence of the training programme while few of them never noticed its existence. On the other way, to some extent the identification of training needs was administered, but also it has been evidenced that the selection of employees in some cases didn’t prove to have elements of fairness and transparency as such there were a lot of complaints from employees insisting that the selection of employees for training was dominated with evil acts including presence of elements of corruption and favouritism. However, the study found that Morogoro Municipality faced various challenges in the implementation of the training programme including; small budget for training, lack of clear organisation policy, lack of management support, unwillingness of some employees to be trained and finally there was small efforts made in identifying training needs. This research has made some recommendations for implementing well a training programme by the Morogoro Municipality. These include; soliciting for donors’ funds, preparation of good organization policy, soliciting for management support, cost sharing and soliciting for employees willingness.
