Abstract
This study utilized a descriptive research design to assess the research training needs of faculty members at Passi City College. A sample of 45 faculty members was selected through convenience sampling from a total population of 77. Data were collected using a 25-item Faculty Research Capability-building Instrument, and analysis involved frequency count, percentage, mean, and standard deviation calculations. The study identified the top ten research training needs, including evaluating programs and activities, determining statistical tools, conducting lesson study and writing research lessons, research advising and mentoring, developing and validating research instruments, conducting research for beginners, using quantitative methods, conducting action research for instructional improvement, evaluating extension service impact, and training on intellectual property and patent review. Areas such as conducting mixed methods research, writing terminal reports for extension services, paraphrasing cited texts, assessing community needs for extension services, and conducting qualitative methods were also recognized but deemed slightly less urgent. A strong positive correlation was observed between faculty preferences and the level of research training need. These findings offer valuable insights for Passi City College to design targeted training programs and support faculty in enhancing their research capabilities. However, limitations include the use of convenience sampling and self-reported data. Future research is encouraged to validate these findings in broader contexts.-The study was conducted at Passi City College from March 2022 to June 2022.
