Abstract
This paper aims to explain the relationship between training functions and employee performance and also to examine the mediating effects of employee competency on the relationship between training functions and employee performance. The training functions of this study were referred to training need analysis and training effectiveness. The respondents of this study consist of executives and assistant executives from a municipal council in Johor, Malaysia. A quantitative survey method was employed in this study coupled with factor analysis, descriptive analysis, correlation analysis and hierarchical regression analysis to analyse the collected data. The results show that training need analysis and training effectiveness were positively associated with employee performance. It was discovered that employee competency is a partial mediator between training functions and employee performance. The findings of this research will facilitate municipal councils and other local authorities in Malaysia to prioritize training need analysis and training effectiveness as part of the process in planning and implementing training programs since it has an impact on employee competency and employee performance.
