dc.description.abstractThis study investigated the impact of staff development programmes on job performances of staff in Nigerian Colleges of Education. The target population of the study was 45,058 staff. A sample of 2,400 staff comprising management, academic and non academic staff was selected using purposive sampling technique. A structured questionnaire which was made up of 100 item statements was the main instrument used for data collection. The data collected were first compiled and presented using frequency distributions and simple percentages, and later subjected to One Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and Scheffe’s Multiple Comparison Test. Ten hypotheses were formulated in line with the specific objectives of the study and the research questions. The findings revealed that the types of development programmes provided have some positive impact on job performances of staff, but acquisition of higher degrees has different levels of positive impact on job performances of the three categories of staff; needs assessment by the college management has some positive impact on staff approval to undertake higher degree programmes, but the methods of evaluating the outcome of staff higher degree programmes were all seen to be inappropriate, and that adequacy of funds provided has some positive impact on staff sponsorship for development programmes and on hosting of short training courses. The findings also revealed that being aware of opportunities for development does not fully motivate staff to utilize the opportunities and the conditions governing staff approval for higher degree programmes have negative impact on staff abilities to complete the programmes within the approved period. From these findings, it was recommended that measures should be put in place to encourage staff to fully utilize the opportunities provided for their professional development and evaluate appropriately the outcome of staff higher degree programmes.en_US
