disagree  Shane Wall: "staff" is almost NEVER plural. I have only seen "staffs" used correctly 1 time in 46 years ... and this is not it!

training department staff


Explanation:
'phòng' can have several different translations into English, depending upon the organization. It can be translated as:

a) department - when it is an entire department;
b) office - when it is part of a larger department; or
c) section - when it is part of a larger department.

Cheers,
Shane

Training office personnel


Explanation:
Since we do not have the context, I suggest use "office" to translate "phòng". Also, these three words just sound better together.

Explanation:
Just another possibility. This is the reason that I don't like to translate from Viet to Eng. There could be so many possibilities.
