The study additionally revealed that the unavailability of resources to facilitate the training and development process at SSNIT is not a challenge. Furthermore, low employees morale and attitude is not a challenge associated with training and development at SSNIT. However, the study revealed that bad working conditions and low employee retention is a challenge associated with training and development at SSNIT.
