Abstract: Bangladesh is a vast area of rural states. Rural development endeavors for the progress of the value of life in the rural extents with synchronized determinations to expedite the growth, efficiency, and welfare of the populations. Bangladesh is not a beginner in the arena of rural development; somewhat it inbred long years of practices in this arena. Nowadays, rural extents are facing key challenges that arise largely from globalization. The forceful progression of globalization involved in the market economy has been insistently shifting the old thoughts, practices and methods of rural development, predominantly in the developing states like Bangladesh. The Bangladesh Academy for Rural Development (BARD) is a fifty-five years old organization functioning for the rural development sector. A small team of faculty members started the expedition of intense new tracks for development designers and rural development managers with the energetic direction of the first Director Dr. Akhter Hameed Khan. All through the years the academy retained strong effects on rural development. Here, an attempt has been made to measure the performance of BARD in the age of globalization on the ground of Training, Research and Action Research criteria.
