The banks selected are Karnataka Bank Ltd. in the private sector, Corporation Bank in the public sector both originating from Dakshina Kannada district and under new generation banking sector the sole ICICI bank branch that is functioning in Dakshina Kannada district were selected.

This research aims to understand the attitude and work performance of employees of commercial banks after undergoing training. Apart from understanding the effectiveness of training programmes the study also aims to identify the magnitude of training needs of employees at different levels in commercial banks under study.
