Abstract: Purpose The research aimed to determine the impact of training programs on staff performance and institutional effectiveness in a challenging healthcare environment. Methods A quantitative, explanatory research design was employed. Questionnaires were distributed to 245 randomly selected permanent staff members from a larger population of 630 employees. Statistical analysis (using SPSS) was used to assess the relationship between training and performance through descriptive statistics and multiple regression analysis. Findings The study found a significant positive correlation between training and employee performance. Training programs, particularly those focused on content delivery, facilitation, and evaluation, have a positive influence on key performance indicators such as work quality, initiative, time management, and teamwork. Well-structured training preparation also improved employee readiness and engagement, leading to better overall performance outcomes. Originality The study provides empirical data from a Ghanaian public hospital, contributing to the limited existing literature on training and performance in African healthcare settings. The findings highlight the importance of aligning training initiatives with institutional goals to improve healthcare delivery through human capital development, offering practical implications for hospital administrators, HR professionals, and policymakers.
