Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the 'Management Problems of Middle Managers in State Universities and Colleges Teacher Education Institutions (SUC- TEls) in Region IX', to serve as Basis for a Middle Management Development Program. A survey questionnaire was used to collect data from Eighty - Five (85) middle managers in State Universities and Colleges Teacher Education Institutions (SUC- TEls) in Region IX, during school year 2008-2009 using stratified random sampling. Results of the study showed that: middle managers perform the Planning, Organizing, Directing/Leading, Controlling, Coordinating- related managerial tasks to a 'Great Extent'. However, they experienced problems in performing Planning, Organizing, Directing/Leading, Controlling, Coordinating - related managerial tasks to a 'Moderate Extent'. The most critical management tasks of the middle managers were identified, these include: Setting minimum competencies/standards for the education curricular Program, programming the requisition and use of physical and material resources for the operational needs of the academic unit(s), Formulating evaluation standards and procedures for the faculty, Identifying instructional planning weaknesses and implement corrective Measures, and Coordinating the requests and deliveries of the physical facility needs of the faculty with higher school authorities. With the findings of this study serving as basis, a Middle Management Development Program can be generated and implemented, to address management related problems. Consequently, this will help improve the managerial effectiveness and efficiency of educational administrators, in providing the quality of education envisioned by the SUC - TEls in Region IX.
