Five objectives were set some of which are to examine the influence of recruitment process on staff performance in Colleges of Education in Kano State, find out the influence of job design on staff performance in Colleges of Education in Kano State, ascertain the influence of job description on staff performance in Colleges of Education in Kano State, assess influence of job specification on staff performance in Colleges of Education in Kano State, and determine the influence of training and development on staff performance in Colleges of Education in Kano State. Five research questions were asked in line with objectives and five null hypotheses were postulated and tested at P < 0.05 level of significance. Descriptive survey design was adopted for the study. The population of the study was 346 staff, consisting of 24 management staff, 180 academic staff and 142 non-academic staff in the three Colleges of Education in Kano State. The sample size was determined through proportionate stratified random sampling technique. A 50- item structured questionnaire titled “Job Analysis on Staff Performance Questionnaire (JASPQ)” was used as instrument for data collection. The reliability of the instrument was confirmed using test-retest method for testing stability over time, computed using Pearson Product Moment Correlation method and the value obtained was 0.82. The data collected were analysed by using frequency tables to answer the research questions, while Pearson Product Moment was used to test the null hypotheses. The results of the study revealed that both federal and state public Colleges of Education in Kano State complied with approved guidelines on staff recruitment; that public Colleges of Education in Kano State were designed into a structure of schools, departments and units as well as functional positions and offices; that job behavior required in terms of roles, duties, and responsibilities of functional positions and offices were clearly described and that the associated standard features of job specification in the Colleges of Education in Kano State were apparently employed in the process of recruitment or assigning of official positions to staff. Also training and development programmes in Colleges of Education in Kano State enhanced staff productivity and effectiveness due to active participation in national and international seminars, workshops, conferences and self-development efforts through readings of current and related articles in journals and other sources. Some of the recommendations made are: that Colleges of Education should maintain the standard of recruitment processes adopted in the employment of competent management, academic and non-academic staff; that adequate provision of job design such as placement and posting of staff into functional positions and offices should be based on training, qualification and experience of staff so as to facilitate goal attainment; that the Colleges should ensure that Staff training and development is regular and continuous and should not be sporadic.
