Abstract

Colleges of education are established to train teachers for the education sector. This paper assesses the impact of human resource management on teachers’ productivity in colleges of education in the North-central geo-political zone of Nigeria. The researchers adopted a descriptive survey research design. The population of the study comprised of all the 11 colleges of education in North-central, with a staff strength of 4,914. The stratified and purposive random sampling techniques were used to select a sample of 495 staff, stratified along academic and non-academic, who participated in the research. A 15-item researcher-developed questionnaire titled “Impact of Human Resource Management on Teachers Productivity Questionnaire (IHRMTPQ)” was used as an instrument for data collection. Three research questions and one null hypothesis guided the study. Data collected were analysed using mean, standard deviation and percentage scores. The chi-square statistic was used to test the null
hypothesis at the 0.05 level of probability. The findings revealed that recruitment processes, training and development and staff welfare have a significant impact on teachers’ productivity in colleges of education. The conclusion was drawn and it was
recommended, among others that administrators of colleges of education in the zone should follow stipulated due process in recruitment, increase staff training and development, and improve on staff welfare so as to motivate teachers to greater
performance, which will in turn increase productivity.
