Abstract: The study attempts to examine the relationship and impact of training and development practices on job satisfaction of employees. Universe of the study has been limited to faculty members employed at institutes providing technical education in the city of Nagpur, Maharashtra, India. A sample size of 360 faculty members was collected to represent the universe. The research was conducted in a confirmatory framework so as to examine the causal linkage among the study variables. The results depicted a positive relationship between training and development practices and job satisfaction among the faculty members of technical educational institutes. The study not only provides empirical credence to the importance of training and development practices but also has implications for the management of technical educational institutes that educational institutes should conduct a proper training need analysis to ensure that appropriate training and development practices are adopted leading to creating a learning environment in the organization which eventually contributes towards job satisfaction of employees through appropriate skills development for individual and organizational growth.
