Background of the Study
Employee training plays a crucial role in enhancing service quality in the hospitality industry, which is highly service-oriented and customer-dependent. In Abuja, the capital city of Nigeria, the hospitality industry has seen significant growth, with an increasing number of hotels, restaurants, and other service-oriented businesses catering to both domestic and international customers. The quality of service provided by these establishments is often determined by the skills, knowledge, and attitude of their employees. As such, well-structured employee training programs can significantly improve service quality by equipping employees with the necessary skills to meet customer expectations.
In Abuja’s highly competitive hospitality sector, where customers expect exceptional service, providing employees with proper training is crucial for maintaining high standards. Effective training programs not only improve employee performance but also foster a positive work environment, enhance customer interactions, and lead to greater customer satisfaction and loyalty. Despite the growing recognition of the importance of training in service quality enhancement, many establishments in Abuja still struggle with inconsistent service standards, which can be attributed to insufficient or inadequate employee training. This study aims to explore the role of employee training in enhancing service quality in Abuja's hospitality industry, focusing on the types of training programs that contribute to improved service delivery.

This study seeks to examine the role of employee training in enhancing service quality in Abuja’s hospitality industry, providing insights into the effectiveness of training programs in improving employee performance and customer satisfaction.
