In line with the new public management approach to provide effective and efficient services necessary to achieve the social goals of public institutions, employees must have the knowledge and skills required by the age. In conjunction with the transition from personnel management to human resources management, it is seen that there is a change in the understanding of inservice training, the understanding of "required inservice training" has switched to the understanding of "continuous inservice training". However, in terms of inservice training in Turkey, it seems to be trouble at the point of adopting to change. The main purpose of this study is to primarily create a conceptual framework of inservice training and subsequently determine, analyze and discuss the developments and problems faced by inservice training in Turkey in the transition from personnel management to human resources management. In accordance with this purpose, the necessary data of this study were collected using qualitative approaches. Observation and document analysis was used and content analysis was performed on the data gathered in the study. The results of this study, according to data such as the number of institutions requesting inservice training, allocated budget of inservice training, the number of people participating in such training, transition of personnel management to human resources management should not lead to a paradigm shift in Turkey’s understanding of inservice training, although this is compulsory for public institutions in accordance with the law in Turkey. Inservice training in Turkish public administration is still not implemented effectively and is seen as a social activity for employees and a formality for institutions.
