for ALL users - edit /etc/profile
for individual users - edit $HOME/.bash_profile:
To add a directory to the PATH just edit this line including a colon : and the new directory. For example to add: /usr/programs/bin to the PATH you would change the line to:

PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin:/usr/programs/bin export PATH
