Abstract
Abstract: The present study’s aim was to assess the effectiveness of training and development of employees in organisations with specific reference to a cooperative society in Zimbabwe. The study employed the qualitative methodology and the population was made up of all the (95) workers at Together- As- One- Cooperative Society which is based in Bulawayo in Zimbabwe. The purposive sampling was used to arrive at a sample of 2 managers and 8 general employees. A structured interview guide was used to generate the data and this data is presented in themes. The study revealed that Together –As- One- Cooperative Society was still stuck in some anachronistic traditional method of assessing training needs. It was also revealed that employees were not given opportunities by the cooperative society to train and develop themselves. The study recommends that the cooperative society should consult all employees regarding their training requirements. The society should also devise a well defined plan for training and developing its workers. Keywords: Effectiveness, training development, organisations, cooperative society.
