Manpower Development and Productivity in Tertiary Institutions in Nigeria: a study of Kogi state College of Education, Ankpa

Abstract:

One of the topical issues of discussion in the recent times in most organizations is manpower development and its retention for increased productivity. This project is geared towards studying manpower development and productivity in Kogi State, using the Kogi State College of Education, Ankpa, as a study area. The research explained the concept of manpower development and productivity and its application to any organization. In the course of this study, it was discovered that one of the major reasons on the low performance on the part of many employee’s in the College is that most of them with key position/ areas have not been well equipped with proper skills or knowledge to enable them effectively handle the responsibilities assigned to them. Also discovered as hindering increased productivity is the inability of the College to retain the staff already equipped with specialized skills. The literature review and the theoretical framework provided in this study served as an ideal which the overall manpower development effort can, and all other processes that go with it in any organizations. To be specific can be assessed. Information and other materials therein were obtained directly through documentary sources, personal interviews and questionnaires for originality. For adequacy, this study used three hypotheses which formed the bases for the findings and recommendation therein. This research report recommends ways through which manpower development and its eventual productivity should be given serious attention they deserve. We recommend that, the prevailing economic recession not withstanding the Kogi State College of Education, Ankpa management should set aside at least 5% of its annual budget for training of its staff. Management should organize or send its staff for periodic meetings, seminars workshops, conferences and refresher courses, for its non-academic and academic staff for not only to improve their performance but also to improve their human relations at work as well. Effort should also be made not only in employing qualified staff but embarks upon training the existing ones that are relevant in the fields. We also recommend that the College should makes a case to the Governing Council so that the State Government can allocate money to the institution for the training of its staff. Based on inadequate funding of the College while we appreciate the financial predicament of the state government, we very much appeal to her for more funds to support the ones the College is generating to enable her, among others, undertake its training and developing programme
