Trustbond Mortgage Bank Plc, one of Nigeria’s leading primary mortgage banks (PMBs), was recently recognized and rewarded by the Industrial Training Fund (ITF) for its consistent contribution to human resource development.
This is an award of excellence that has marked the mortgage bank out as the Best Contributing Employer in Human Resource Development (HRD) for the year 2016.
The ITF is a grade ‘A’ parastatal operating under the aegis of the Federal Ministry of Industry, Trade and Investment that promotes and encourages the acquisition of industrial and commercial skills required for national economic development.
The bank in a statement obtained by BusinessDay in Lagos Tuesday, explained that their emergence as the award winner in the Lekki-Lagos Area Office followed an evaluation exercise conducted by ITF which considered TrustBond’s policy and track record on Human Resource Development and capacity building of its employees as consistently outstanding.
Speaking at the awards presentation ceremony at its 2017 Interactive Forum in Lagos, ITF Director-General Sir Joseph Ari represented by the Director, Information and Communication Technology, Dickson Onuoha, commended TrustBond for distinguishing itself as a responsible corporate organization committed to a culture of continuous learning and development of employees. “TrustBond was given the award for its outstanding efforts in Human Resource Development, particularly in Training and Development for the year 2016,” Onuoha explained.
Lawrence Ogedegbe, Head of Human Capital and Administration at TrustBond, described the recognition as an encouragement and a challenge to further improve learning and development of its employees which ultimately results in higher performance.
“We will continue to invest in building the skill competencies of our employees through quality training and development programmes”, he assured.
