Human resource has been considered as an important and dynamic capital in the growth of an organization. In the era of information and communication, the two most serious issues that surround a business are retention and development of human resource. Human resource development is a framework for developing employees that helps to develop personal and organizational skills, knowledge and abilities. Human resource development includes initiations in the area of employee training, employee career development, performance management and development, coaching, succession planning, key employee identification, training assistance, and organizational development. The focus of all aspects of HRD is on developing a superior workforce so that the organization and individual employees can accomplish goals in harmony. Human resource development can be formal such as training, a college course, or an organizational planned effort. Healthy organizations believe in human resource development and cover all of these bases. An optimal level of developmental climate is essential for facilitating HRD. The study is focused on the analysis of human resource development climate in tourism sector. Sample size of 78 respondents from Kathmandu valley with different experience, designations and educational level have been taken for this study to understand HRD climate in tourism-related businesses in Nepal. This research is quantitative in nature followed by descriptive research design. Researchers have examined the HRD climate of tourism sector on the basis of gender, designation, level of education and years of service. The result has shown that there is no statistically significant difference on the perception towards HRD climate among gender, length of service, designation and educational level. The result shows that the overall climate of tourism sector is good. However, there is scope for improvement in terms of prevention of stereotyping and encouragement in new methods of doing things.
