Abstract

One of the major factors which make the functionality and increasing economic and financial performance of SMEs is the professional development of human resources through their specific activity because these companies must continually adapt to changes in the economic and socio-professional. Also, training of employees is a major challenge for SMEs in the context of intensifying competition between firms. The added value of our study is mainly attributed at a coherent analysis of interconnections between the professional development of employees and the economic and financial performance of SMEs and how vital is the need to intensify concerns of national and European authorities to initiate and support SMEs to develop training and human resource development.
