Abstract

The purpose of this study was two fold. Firstly, it was to provide an in depth qualitative analysis of the perceptions of the two major stakeholders in a small private higher education institution (PHEI) on teaching staff professional development. Secondly, it was to understand how these perceptions affected the development of appropriate strategies. This study employed the generic qualitative research approach. The samples used were two administrators and three full time teaching staff, purposively selected in the small college studied. Two instruments for data collection were used, namely semi-structured video recorded interview and document analysis. A content analysis of documents provided by the participants and gathered by the researcher was made. These provided data and method triangulation. (Author's abstract)
