Abstract

This article aims to analyze the impact of human resource development practices on the organizational commitment of public secondary teachers in Cameroon. To achieve this, we opted for a quantitative approach. This was done using a questionnaire submitted to a random sample of 426 teachers. The descriptive analysis of the data shows that the level of relevance of skills development practices is quite low in the Cameroonian education system. Likewise, the linear regression revealed that skill development has a significant influence on the organizational commitment of teachers. These results suggest that the continuous training system in force in schools should be improved in order to have a positive effect on the organizational commitment of teachers.
