Through this approach, the center empowers academic and administrative personnel, enhancing their professional prowess to deliver top-tier education and champion sustainable development.

HRDC assesses the effectiveness of its training initiatives across different levels of the organization by Implementing Kirkpatrick's Model for training outcome analysis. This model helps in evaluating the impact of training programs on participants' reactions, learning outcomes, behaviour changes, and ultimately, the achievement of organizational goals.
