Abstract: This study looked into the training/seminar needs of the human resources or Kalinga State University employees. Data were collected from the one hundred ninety-five (195) employees who represented the university's three campuses: the Bulanao Campus/ the main campus, the Dagupan Campus, and the Rizal Campus. The study made use of frequency and ranking. It was found that there are various needs of the teaching group and non-teaching staff. Their needs varied since they have different functions. However, there are needs identified which are the same though at a different level. It is an indication that they, both groups of respondents, need training/seminars for updates and performance improvement. Finally, these identified training needs were used to prepare the design for future implementation, which is expected to improve employees' performance that will level up the university's status.

Keywords: training needs, human resource, KSU.
