Abstract
The present study evaluates the performance of Public Sector Training
Institutes (PSTIs) in Pakistan in reference to a framework for evaluating
performance that includes four dimensions: effectiveness, efficiency,
relevancy, and creativity. The data reveal unsatisfactory training and
development in the PSTIs. The relationship between PSTIs’ objectives
and output was weak, thereby questioning their effectiveness. The
efficiency is satisfactory as PSTIs are performing task in a reasonably
economic way. Moreover, PSTIs’ programs are not relevant to the needs
of the trainees and client organizations and are not creative in terms of
training contents, delivery mechanism, and changing environment. Thus,
PSTIs display low performance on three out of four criteria.
