1. Introduction
Training and development play an important role in the effectiveness of organizations
and to the experiences of people in work. Training has implications for productivity,
health and safety at work and personal development. All organizations employing
people need to train and develop their staff. Most organizations are cognizant of this
9|P a g e
requirement and invest effort and other resources in training and development. Such
investment can take the form of employing specialist training and development staff
and paying salaries to staff undergoing training and development. Investment in
training and development entails obtaining and maintaining space and equipment. It
also means that operational personnel, employed in the organization’s main business
functions, such as production, maintenance, sales, marketing and management
support, must also direct their attention and effort from time to time towards
supporting training development and delivery. This means they are required to give
less attention to activities that are obviously more productive in terms of the
organization’s main business. However, investment in training and development is
generally regarded as good management practice to maintain appropriate expertise
now and in the future.
10 | P a g e
environmental changes of an organization. Productivity is the goal of today’s
competitive business world and training can be a spring board to enhance
productivity. The main objective of training and development in FRSC is to increase
efficiency of employees with the resulting increase in corporate productivity. This
accounts for why a large number of fund and time is expected by organization at one
period or the order in the improvement of the skills of their employees at various
levels. The principal intention of training according to Akinola (2007), is to equip
people with the knowledge required to qualify them for a particular position of
employment, or to improve their skills and efficiency in the position they already
hold. Manpower development on the other hand, implies growth and the acquisition
of wide experience for future strategic advantages of the organization. Training and
development therefore, improves the effectiveness and efficiency of the employee.
Therefore, the aim of this research is to know the current state, nature, procedure and
method of training and development used by the Guaranty Trust Bank for their
employees and let’s not forget that any organization that has no plan for the training
and development of its staff is less than dynamic for learning is a continuous process
and acquired skills get obsolete when the environment changes. Also, a popular
caption in the field of personnel management says, “If you think training and
development are expensive try ignorance”. While training and development prosper
organization, ignorance destroys it. Therefore, workers like machines must be updated
on constant basis or else, they end up becoming obsolete or misfit (Muhtar,
2007).However, it is important to state that the lack of adequate emphasis on
manpower development as a tool for development in Nigeria on the part of
government as well as the organized private sector could not be far-fetched from the
lack of understanding of both the concept and methods for manpower development in
a post-colonial Nigerian State in which the process of human resource development
for national growth was distorted by colonialism with the attendant negative
orientation that was injected into political leadership (Ekpo 2009). Thus, manpower
development became an elitist design that was geared to favor capitalist mode of
production in which labor was relegated to the background among the factors of
production.
3. Literature Review
Human resource is the very important and the backbone of every organization and it is
also the main resource of the organization. So organizations invest huge amount on
the human resource capital because the performance of human resource will
11 | P a g e
ultimately increase the performance of the organization. Performance is a major
multidimensional construct aimed to achieve results and has a strong link to strategic
goals of an organization (Mwita, 2000). As the Mwita (2000) explains that
performance is the key element to achieve the goals of the organization so to
performance increase the effectiveness and efficiency of the organization which is
helpful for the achievement of the organizational goals. There are many factors which
improves the work of the employee such as flexible scheduling, training etc. It is very
necessary for the organization to design the training very carefully (Michael
Armstrong, 2000). The design of the training should be according to the needs of the
employees (Ginsberg, 1997). Those organizations which develop a good training
design according to the need of the employees as well as to the organization always
get good results (Partlow, 1996; Tihanyi et al., 2000; Boudreau et al., 2001). It seems
that Training design plays a very vital role in the employee as well as organizational
performance. A bad training design is nothing but the loss of time and money (Tsaur
and Lin, 2004). On the job training helps employees to get the knowledge of their job
in a better way (Deming, 1982). People learn from their practical experience much
better as compare to bookish knowledge. On the job training reduces cost and saves
time (Flynn et al., 1995; Kaynak, 2003; Heras, 2006). It is better for the organizations
to give their employees on the job training because it is cost effective and time saving
(Ruth Taylor et al., 2004). It is good for organization to give their employees on the
job training so that their employees learnt in a practical way (Tom Baum et al., 2007).
Delivery style is a very important part of Training and Development (Carlos A. Primo
Braga, 1995). Employees are very conscious about the delivery style Michael
Armstrong, 2000). If someone is not delivering the training in an impressive style and
he is not capturing the attention of the audience it is means he is wasting the time
(Mark A. Griffin et al., 2000). It is very necessary for a trainer to engage its audience
during the training session (Phillip seamen et al., 2005). Delivery style means so
much in the Training and Development. It is very difficult for an employee to perform
well at the job place without any pre-training (Thomas N. Garavan, 1997). Trained
employees perform well as compared to untrained employees (Partlow, 1996; Tihanyi
et al., 2000; Boudreau et al., 2001). It is very necessary for any organization to give
its employees training to get overall goals of the organization in a better way (Flynn
et al., 1995; Kaynak, 2003; Heras, 2006). Training and development increase the
overall performance of the organization (Shepard, Jon et al., 2003). Although it is
costly to give training to the employees but in the long run it give back more than it
took (Flynn et al., 1995; Kaynak, 2003; Heras, 2006). Every organization should
develop its employees according to the need of that time so that they could compete
with their competitors (Carlos A. Primo Braga, 1995).

4. Study Gap
In my study on “Training and Development Policies and Process of the City Bank
Ltd.” I found many problems and from those problems I have found two Study gaps. I
will continue with those gaps. The gaps are,
Training of mid-level are done inside the country
The training of mid-level manager are done inside the country but they can
also arrange trainings outside the country like for the top level managers.
Employees are always in a great pressure
The employees of The City Bank has to take a great pressure on them each
day, so they just can recruit some more employees to reduce the stress of
employees.
These are the gaps I have selected for my study if I can fulfill the gaps I believe that it
will bring a good change in the training system of the city bank.
There are also some other objectives of the studies, they are:

Introduction
As we all know any investigation should be structured so that the conclusion is close
to the reality. In study methodology the objective of the study is clearly defined.
Accordingly formulated, coverage (both conceptual and geographical) is defined and
techniques to be used are placed in the study design. There are various techniques
such as survey study methodology, use of available data, observation technique etc.
The sampling should have proper sanctity. The techniques are different for different
studies. In a group study observation method was found useful. In forecasting the
survey study is used. Any change in sampling could alter the conclusion. Further,lot
of secondary data is available. In case it is possible to complete the study with
secondary data, collection of primary data may not be required. Selection of Study
methodology is an essential prerequisite before taking up a study project, so that the
conclusion serves the purpose for which the project is undertaken. So this section
describes the Sample Size, Sampling Procedures, Data Source, Data Collection, Data
Processing, and Data Analysis of the study.
Methodology
The process used to collect information and data for the purpose of making business
decisions. The methodology may include publication research, interviews, surveys
and other research techniques, and could include both present and historical
information. For this study I have chosen a qualitative way and the following steps are
describing my methodology of the study.
Sample Size
To conduct this study I have taken my sample as a simple random sampling and the
required sample size for conducting this study is 40, those who are working at The
City Bank.
Sampling Procedure
For conducting this study project the probabilistic sampling procedure was followed
in order to select the sample which is Simple random sampling.
Data sources
The information and data for this report have been collected from both the primary
and secondary sources.
The primary data was collected by face-to-face conversation with the respective
employees of The Gulshan branch and head office and by asking some questionnaire.
The secondary data was collected from the internal and external website of the City
Bank.
15 | P a g e
Data collection Method
Relevant data for this report collected primarily by direct investigations of different
records, papers, documents, operational process and different personnel. The
interviews were administered by formal and informal discussion. Structured
questionnaire will be used. Information regarding office activities of the customer
care center have been collected through consulting and discussion with care Centre
personnel.
Data Processing
The data collected from the respondents through structured questionnaire. After that,
data has processed through the following ways.
At first the questionnaires has given a serial number then the respondents’ answers are
categorized according to their personal information, present service center situation,
experience, preference, attitude, behavior, satisfaction level about The City
Bank.After that respondents’ answer are analyzed theoretically. As this study is a
qualitative study so all the respondent’s answers were brought into a ratio and after
that that was analyzed.
Data Analysis
According to the data analysis, 70% of the employees are satisfied with the training
they are getting and the rest 30% think that it should be improved. All the employees
more or less takes training from time to time and there is a system of exam after every
2 months where the employees are evaluated how they are getting trained. So because
of that the employees are quite satisfied with their system as they get to know other
departments work and as well as because of evaluation there comes a competitive
feelings that inspires them to develop themselves.

1. Introduction
This Chapter is all about the HRM activities, Training policies and development
procedures of the city bank. Here I have described the whole Process of training and
development of the city bank.
According to Garry Dessler, HRM is the policies and practices that one needs to carry
out the “people” or human resource aspects of a management position, including
recruiting, screening, training, rewarding and appraising.
The result is a pool of applicants from which new employees are selected.
The selection process is a series of specific steps used to decide which recruits should
be hired. The process begins when recruits apply for employment and ends with the
hiring decision. According to Dale Yoder, “selection is the process by which
candidates for employment are divided into two classes those who will be offered for
employment and those who will not.”
29 | P a g e
2.5 Definition of Development
Employee development, by design, is more future oriented and more concerned with
education than employee job specific training. According to Griffen, “development
refers to teaching managers and professionals the skill needed for both present and
future jobs.”

1. Introduction
This chapter is for the result, implications, limitations, recommendation of the study
and then after all this the conclusion. This chapter shows the ending of the study.
3. Implication
Recommendations are given below. For implication of the recommendation firstly the
reason behind the problems needs to be identified. Then the most reasonablesolution
needs to be found. Secondly capacity of the employees need to be known. Based on
that thing employees number should be changed.
5. Recommendation
There are some recommendation that The City Bank can follow to improve and do
better than their competitors. They are
• The training of mid-level manager are done inside the country but they can also
arrange trainings outside the country like for the top level managers.
• The employees of The City Bank has to take a great pressure on them each day, so
they just can recruit some more employees to reduce the stress of employees.
The City Bank for its technical division’s positions along with MCQ Test, IQ Test
and interview should take work sampling test of candidates. It will also help The City
Bank to find right candidate for the position. Work sampling tests will give The City
Bank clear idea which candidates could perform well in future.
The City Bank should hire external candidates more, this will encourage external
candidates to apply for positions in The City Bank. In addition, employees of different
background will create a huge diversity in The City Bank employee’s pool.
39 | P a g e
Employees of different background will bring new and fresh ideas. Moreover,
external candidates will bring new skills and competency which will help in The City
Bank growth.
The City Bank should give harder goal to sales department to earn profit. However,
The City Bank employees need achievable goals. The City Bank gives goals that are
not easily achievable. Otherwise, employees will feel de-motivated, have low morale
and employees productivity can decreased.
The City Bank should offer same salaries for employees at the same positions. The
City Bank shouldn’t make differentiation across different department and different
units. By providing same salaries to employees at the same positions will make
employees feel they are also important and valuable for The City Bank. As a result,
employee’s motivations and loyalty will increase. Employee’s tendency to shifting
units would be decreased.
The City Bank satisfies employee’s growth needs at entry level. The City Bank should
give opportunities to employees so that they can achieve growths and goals. This will
satisfy The City Bank’s entry level employee’s growth needs. Different trainings,
assigning mentors to entry level employees will be great opportunities for employees.
Assigning mentors to entry level employees will help them to learn new skills and to
perform well on the job.
The City Bank should automate its exit process. If The City Bank automated exit
process it will take maximum 1 day to finish exit formalities. So, resigned employees
will be happy to complete exit formalities in shortest time. Moreover, automated exit
process will increase The City Bank’s employee’s efficiency.
6. Conclusion
The City Bank Ltd. has lots of positive features; like The City Bank Ltd. practices
teamwork, recognizes and motivates teamwork. When a team performed well The
City Bank Ltd. gives rewards to the team. The City Bank Ltd. offers employment
securities as a result employees are loyal toward The City Bank Ltd. In The City Bank
Ltd. managers get the opportunities to play the role of decision makers, entrepreneurs
and spokes persons of his units. In spite of having good features The City Bank Ltd.
has some drawbacks too, they don’t give extensive trainings to entry level employees.
So, entry level employees at The City Bank Ltd. at starting of their career struggle a
lot to learn new skills. So, The City Bank Ltd. should offer entry level employees
extensive trainings like local trainings, technical know-how programs, and in-house
trainings. Moreover, The City Bank Ltd. interns are too much involved in recruitment
process; interns check IQ Tests script, stay on interview session. This sort of
involvement of intern is not good for CBL. So, instead of using intern The City Bank
Ltd. should increase the numbers of employees in recruitment team. Another
40 | P a g e
drawback about The City Bank Ltd. is that employees of CBL working at same
positions get different salary. This differentiation needs change. Otherwise employee
will feel they are less important and valuable in The City Bank Ltd.
CBL came and was able to get its target customers. Within a very short time they
gave tough competition to the leading Banks of Bangladesh. Gradually the success
has been possible for its strong operating HR. I am very proud to be a part of this
internship program at The City Bank Ltd... Here I learned in details about the training
and development, administrative works, performance appraisal etc. I was able to
apply my knowledge of HR. Report on the training and development in the
department of HR & admin of The City Bank Ltd. Is a part of a credit course of my
BBA program? I learned so many things from this report, about its different training
processes, appraisal system, motivational.
