Specifically, it answered the following sub-problems: 1) What are the trainings and development programs on supply and property management availed by employees of the City Government of Tabaco along onsite and offsite?; 2) What is the level of effectiveness of the programs along personnel development and work environment?; 3) What are the challenges that affect the training and development of employees in supply and property management?; and 4) What capacity development agenda may be proposed to address the challenges? It used the quantitative research design and followed the descriptive-survey method. The study employed the descriptive-survey method of research. A questionnaire was utilized to gather the needed data. The respondents were the regular employees of the City Government of Tabaco.
