Employee training has become an essential component in improving institutional effectiveness, faculty competency, and organisational growth in higher educational institutions. Private colleges in Anantapur town are increasingly focusing on faculty development programmes, orientation sessions, skill enhancement workshops, and digital teaching training to improve academic quality and institutional performance. The present study examines the impact of employee training on organisational development and faculty performance effectiveness in private colleges located in Anantapur town. The research analyses how training programmes contribute to teaching efficiency, communication skills, technological adaptation, research productivity, and student satisfaction. The study is based on both primary and secondary data. Primary data were collected from faculty members working in private degree and professional colleges in Anantapur town through a structured questionnaire. A sample of 120 respondents was selected using convenience sampling.
