Automotive businesses propelled by rapid technical progress and market requirements need comprehensive training and development (T&D) programs to improve employee performance and mitigate skill deficiencies. This study underscores the need of integrating training and development programs with corporate objectives, using contemporary techniques such as e-learning and practical simulations to cultivate technical competencies and address varied learning requirements. Ongoing assessment is emphasized as essential for sustaining the pertinence of training and development programs in a dynamic industry. This study offers a systematic framework for enhancing training and development activities, illustrating how successful initiatives may elevate employee engagement, flexibility, and organizational competitiveness. Ultimately, cultivating a culture of perpetual learning and innovation is seen as a strategic need for sustained success in the industry of automotives.
