This study investigates the impact of training and capacity-building programs on employee performance and institutional efficiency in public and private sector universities of Sindh, Pakistan. Drawing upon Human Capital Theory and Institutional Development Theory, the research employs a quantitative survey design targeting faculty and administrative staff across both sectors. The findings reveal that training is positively perceived in terms of enhancing motivation, job commitment, and performance. However, correlation analysis indicates weak or statistically insignificant links between attitudinal improvements and actual performance outcomes. Public sector universities reported slightly higher benefits from training programs, possibly due to more standardized and policy-driven practices. The study highlights critical gaps in post-training application, performance tracking, and institutional support, which undermine the strategic effectiveness of training. The research concludes that training must be embedded within broader organizational reform strategies, and recommends the development of role-specific frameworks, follow-up mechanisms, and a Sindh-specific capacity-building policy.
