Abstract: The crucial role that effective human resource management plays in the success and productivity of universities can’t be overstated. Despite its difficulty, it provides a competitive advantage. Well-skilled academic staff are invaluable to a university as they have a strong impact on its productivity. Currently, many universities struggle with retaining academic staff and ensuring job satisfaction. This study focuses on examining the relationship between training and development, job satisfaction, and academic staff retention among the academic staff at Taraba State University and Federal University of Wukari in Nigeria. The study is quantitative and relies on a closed-ended questionnaire administered to 150 academic staff members of both institutions. The data were analyzed using regression analysis in SPSS. Results showed that training and development have a significant effect on job satisfaction and academic staff retention. The findings, limitations, and suggestions for future research were also discussed.
