Google surveys and structured questions were used to collect the data. It used a quantitative approach. With SPSS version 22, the statistical analysis was completed. The goals of the investigation were supported by regression analysis. To do this, accurate generation and interpretation of frequency tables, percentages, means, and standard deviations was done.

The relationship between the dependent variables and the independent factors (learning and development) was looked into using linear regression (employee performance). According to the findings, there is a strong link between employee performance and learning and development (R2 =.632, F = 2.667, T = 4.63, P > 0.05).
