To achieve the paper the researcher was used both mixed research design. Data were collected through a self-administered survey, which has both open and closed ended questionnaire from both primary and secondary source of data. To accomplish this study the data analysis involved frequencies, means, analysis of variances and bivariate analysis in form of cross tabulation to explore the relationships between the various variables tested in the current study .In this study Pearson’s correlation coefficient matrix was used to determine the relation between independent variable and multi linear regression model was employed choosing which variables to include the effects of explanatory variable training effects and dependent variable. The researcher used Cronbach’s Alpha to measure of reliability and internal consistency. As suggested by different scholars More than 85% response rate regarded as better to investigate the study. As data output more than 85% of employees were highly and strongly demotivated due to effects of training on employee performance. About 78.6% of the total respondents responded that staff training did not received to the employees appropriately due to the lack of attention. Almost 87.9% inadequate and inappropriate training highly and very highly affects employee and organizational performance.

Regression coefficient result confirmed that all dimension except supervisory management factors that might influence the effectiveness of training on Employee performance at the sig. level of <.05.linear R (correlation) value of .810 (81%) indicates positive relationship between the dependent and independent variable and R Square value for the model showed that .0656(65.6%) of the dependent variable in the model can be predicted by the independent variables and the rest 34.40% are other variables not included in this analysis. The normal probability plot would be approximately straight line and normally predict effects of employee training on Performance. In general for best employee and reorganizational performance starting from staff members to higher concerning body either government or non-government should attracting staff members and minimize this problem by adequate training.
