Abstract

This study investigates training and development needs in Tamil Nadu, focusing on the effectiveness and requirements of
training programs across various industries. Using a crosssectional survey design, we collected data from 400 participants
to explore demographics, training needs, and the impact of training on job performance. Our analysis reveals significant
differences in training needs by industry, with the IT/Software sector showing a higher demand for technical skills, while
the Education sector prioritizes soft skills. ANOVA results indicate varying perceptions of training effectiveness based on
education level, and a
Chi-square test reveals a significant association between gender and the perception of training effectiveness. Additionally,
a t-test highlights significant differences in training effectiveness scores between younger and older age groups. Overall,
the study finds that longer training durations positively correlate with improved job performance, and age and gender
influence training effectiveness perceptions. These findings underscore the importance of tailoring training programs to
specific needs and demographic factors.
