Osuala, (1999) agrees that the constraints to the training and
development of a secretary became alarming and worrisome, with the
depression in the Nigerian economy. Before the oil glut, the constraints
were passable, but since then, petroleum was no longer attracting the
anticipated revenue, the country’s external reserve became depleted, the
local currency was devalued to an insignificant position, unemployment
became pronounced with major reductions in social spending. Training and
development of a secretary was not spared.
Appraisal at the adequate
time also frustrated secretarial training and development. Management
fail to see the job of a secretary as the center wheel that turn any
organization and that is the reason, some tertiary institutions
especially the institute of management and technology, Enugu, finds it
difficult to sent them on training.
This research therefore is
designed to set out as concisely as possible, the problems inherent in
training and development of a secretary in tertiary institutions
especially in the Institution of Management and Technology, Enugu, in a
depressed economy.
1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
Effective
secretarial training and development strategy should be comprehensive,
future oriented, continuous and implementable with a formal framework.
There
appears to be a shortage or inadequacy of well trained secretaries to
cope with the new trend of technological development in tertiary
institutions.
Moreover, there are less potential secretaries in
tertiary institutions that have attained the required training and
development considering the present technological development.
Therefore,
it is in the light of these observed inefficiencies that inspired the
researcher to survey such problems that are encountered in the training
and development of a secretary in tertiary institutions.
1.3 PURPOSE OF THE STUDY
The
major purpose of this study is to find out the problems inherent in the
training and development of a secretary. Specifically, the study will
1. Find out management problems in the training and development of secretaries.
2. Ascertain problems secretaries encounter in undergoing training.
3. Find out the effect of untrained secretaries in tertiary institutions.
4. Identify the efforts the management have made to eliminate these problems.
