Abstract:
Sustainable training programmes must attain prior stated objectives and maximise the resources invested in them. The Promoting Excellence in Teaching (PET) programme which was designed to provide pedagogical training for newly recruited academic staff in Obafemi Awolowo University is one that has faced extinction tendencies on account of a number of factors chief amongst which is funding. The continued funding of the programme must therefore be justified. It is with this background that this study was carried out to: assess the adequacy of the objectives of the programme; and examine the adequacy of the learning experiences provided by the programme. The study utilised the descriptive survey design involving both quantitative and qualitative data collection methods and analyses. The sample comprised 125 lecturers from 13 faculties of the University who had participated in the first three training sessions of the programme. The results showed that the participants: perceived the objectives to be adequate albeit with some modifications; and assessed the learning experiences provided by the programme to be suitable and adequate. The implications of these findings for the implementation of similar programmes were discussed.
