The digital era has transformed the way organizations have been handling their human resources (HR). The human resource management (HRM) practices today require flexible skills, technological competencies, and agile systems. Local community development organisations often struggle to adapt to these rapid changes due to limited knowledge, technology access, and workforce readiness. This study analysed the role of HR training in the sustainability of local community development organisations in and around Ranchi district of Jharkhand, India. The study discusses the importance of HR training in enhancing the digital literacy and commitment among the workforce. In terms of methodology, in-depth interviews were purposively conducted with a sample size of ten participants; and observations were carried out over a period of three months. On the basis of the review of literature, participant suggestions and observation data, the study revealed that appropriate HR training is imperative to the sustainability of the local community development organisations. The findings of this study are expected to assist the organizations operating in the area of community development and public policy.
