D.Phil. (Industrial Psychology and People Management) / The aim of this study was to establish the stakeholders’ perception of a Human Resource Development (HRD) intervention. This was prompted by the fact that the Mpumalanga Department of Education (MDoE) has been regarded as one of the provinces that performs poorly on grade 12 results as compared to other provinces. A qualitative methodology was adopted in this study where in 20 participants were interviewed as internal stakeholders in the MDoE. The participants from different categories were purposefully selected from various regions in the MDoE in order to establish their perceptions of a HRD intervention. This study established that the human resource development and training services were not properly managed. This is attributed to shortage of staff, insufficient budget, HRD practitioners’ competencies, inaccurate information keeping and lastly the fact that the recommendations made by the internal auditors were not implemented. Consequently, the researcher ended up constructing an HRD audit process which could assist both private and public sector organization to improve service delivery. The proposed HRD audit process will hopefully ignite interest of scholars to test it, customize or even expand it.
