The authors applied the factor analysis, T-test, ANOVA test, regression analysis methods. Findings: This paper determines the impact of training practices, namely, the satisfaction factor and motivation factor, to the performance efficiency of the employees. When the satisfaction factor increases by one unit, the performance level will decrease by 0.145 units. There is a positive correlation between the performance and the motivation factor. If the motivation factor increases by one unit, performance level will also increase by 0.413 units. Conclusion: Training activities increase the professional and technical knowledge of the employees as well as improve their abilities and corporate culture. Thus, it is necessary to provide a working environment where employees can continuously learn and develop themselves through training.

We investigate the impact of a program providing asset transfers and business training to low income individuals in Chile, and asked whether a larger asset transfer would magnify the program's impact. We randomly assigned participation in a large scale, publicly run micro-entrepreneurship program and evaluated its effects over 45 months. The program improved business practices, employment, and labor income. In the short run, self-employment increased by 14.8/25.2 percentage points for a small/large asset transfer. In the long run, individuals assigned to a smaller transfer were 9 percentage points more likely to become wage workers, whereas those assigned to larger transfers tended to remain self-employed.

This research aims to identify the challenges confronting the delivery of training and development in the context of Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia is a country which is currently in a transformational phase, triggered by domestic factors like Vision 2030 and global factors. Through a process known as Saudization, the government of Saudi Arabia seeks to improve the quality of human resource in the country and provide the maximum opportunities to its youth that constitutes a significant part of its population. To this end, the government is heavily investing in training and development programs and the education sector. This study collects secondary data from government documents, databases, articles, reports, books, and previous studies undertaken by the government to measure the effectiveness of its training and development programs. Various findings have been summarised from the perspective of challenges confronting the delivery of training and development programs in Saudi Arabia.
