A quantitative approach employing questionnaires to collect data was adopted. 296 questionnaires were dispatched and a response rate of 79% of that was collected and analyzed. An SPSS was used to undertake the descriptive analysis. The results showed that the training and development programme in URA was largely effective evidenced in table 4.2 where general training and development were largely effective evidenced by highest score with standard deviation of 0.980.
