However, many local government authorities in Tanzania continue to experience challenges related to inadequate records management practices due to limited professional training among records personnel. This study assessed the impact of records management training on the efficiency of records personnel in Tanzania, The study was guided by four specific objectives: to examine the existing records management training programmes, to evaluate the efficiency of records personnel before and after training, to identify challenges affecting the implementation of records management training, and to determine the relationship between records management training and organizational efficiency. A descriptive research design and a mixedmethods approach were employed. Data were collected from 26 respondents through questionnaires, interviews, and document review. Quantitative data were analysed using descriptive statistics, including frequencies and percentages, while qualitative data were analysed using thematic analysis. The findings revealed that records management training significantly improved employees' knowledge, skills, and competencies .The study further established that trained personnel performed their duties more efficiently, resulting in improved organizational performance and service delivery.
