CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
The recent global economic recession heralded diverse experience across businesses. It was a threatening period that led to unexpected changes for many careers, businesses, organization as well as individuals. To some, the experience provided the opportunity for creative thinking and new development. 
As we navigate through the troubled water of recovery, business leaders and professionals have engaged diverse strategies. Some organizations displayed a high level of business intelligence, leveraging on the intellectual commitment of their staff to stay afloat. Nevertheless, the rate of talents and careers that were drowned by the economic recession was quit much due to unbalanced acquisition of new skills, training and development.
It is not a fallacy to say that training constitute the core of staff productivity in any organization. In organization, whether public or private concern, it is the staff that plays critical role in helping organization, groups or society to achieve their stated goals and objective.
Hence, to accomplish this purpose, training and development need be adopted to have an optimal high productivity on staff performance. Organizational performance depends on how employees are being trained and motivated.
No organization can triumph in the race of economic recession, and business uncertainty because our world is currently under going rapid changes particular in the area of skill obsolesce and technological capability; training is not exclusively reserve for newly employed staff but also for the old employees as well.
Commercial banks just like any other organization in Nigeria strive to achieve optimum efficiency in their human resources management, thus devote a large chunk of their substantial capital to training and development. This becomes more imperative with successful completion of Mergers, Acquisition and it attendant increase in capitalization witnessed of recent in the Nigeria Baking industry which necessitated increase in attention of training and development.
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Training and development programmes foster the initiative and creativity of employee and help to prevent manpower obsolesce which may be due to age, temperament or motivation or the inability of a person to change. Simbo A. Banjoko (2002).
An organization that is growth conscious must take training as an important aspect of its task. It is pertinent to note that human resources have the highest elect orating rate and should be in energy of an organization so as to receive the desired result as they are the cornerstones of any organization.
While training is concerned with increasing knowledge and skill in claying a particular job, development aims at availing to the skills of the worker and improving their general knowledge and altering their attitude.
This project shall aim at how training and development can bring about efficiency in achieving organizational objective in United Bank for Africa (UBA) Plc. 
After merger and acquisition in the Nigeria commercial sector, training and development of new and old employee enable the employee to have necessary skills and be able to perform more and attain organization goals. Increase in labour turnover provides gaps, which have to be filled with employees. These new employees come from different companies with different skills. These employees have to be trained and be retrained so as to be able to achieve the objective of the organization.
Training and Development of human resources in the banking industry is mostly costly through on - the job or off - the job training. Banking industry are service providers and has been aptly described as the “lubricant of the engine of growth that drives the economy”. People are employed to work in various sections cum departments and they deal with all aspects of banking activities. Bank employees possess different degrees and certificate, yet in spite of this, there is need to train and develop them on banking operating techniques in order for them (employee) to be able to perform a more responsible and tasking duties through training and staff development, banks are able to save and improve current performance and provide a suitable trained staff to meet present and future challenges.
