description The study assessed the effectiveness of human resource planning at Bishop Barham University College. The study was guided by three research objectives namely; to identify the methods of human resource planning at Bishop Barham University College, to assess the extent to which the existing human resource planning methods have been effective in acquiring and retaining staff in the University and to identify the challenges facing human resource planning at Bishop Barham University College. The study comprised a sample size of 66 respondents. The study used a case study research design involving both qualitative and quantitative approaches. Questionnaires and interview guides were employed in this research. The study found that judgmental, forecasting, trend analysis, replacement, and ratio are methods that Bishop Barham University College applies in human resource planning. However, it was found that rapid changes in technology harden the process of adopting a business environment, financial constraints to execute plans, lack of experts and incapability of the present staff, workforce diversity, and poor policies failed to attract and retain the best talents are challenges which influence human resource planning at Bishop Barham University College. The study also found out that to a large extent, human resource planning is effective at BBUC in that it facilitates effective communications and coordination for decision making, helps to create the ability to respond towards changes in the market employment equity and skills, helps to attract and retain best talents which facilitate organization goal achievement, helps to foresee risks, hence reduce unnecessary costs, facilitates employee wellness (occupational health and safety), facilitates students' performance and attracts competent lecturers who can transfer knowledge and deliver consultancy services at high quality. It is recommended that the human resource department at BBUC needs to regularly review HR policies so as to craft strategies that would overcome challenges. These strategies include adopting new technology, creating a strong personnel database to ensure there is effective communication, retaining best skills and improving the motivation scheme both financial and non-financial schemes.
