Abstract: Before the establishment of the TETFund in Nigeria, the tertiary education system has been on the path of severe developmental and infrastructural decline. This study examined the effect of TETFund intervention programmes on academic staff development in selected federal and state polytechnics in Southwest, Nigeria. Primary data extracted from carefully structured questionnaires administered to academic staff in six southwest polytechnics were analyzed using descriptive analysis and the analysis of variance (ANOVA). The findings revealed that TETFund intervention programs had a significant positive effect on academic staff development in the selected polytechnics. The study recommends continuous sustenance of TETFund intervention activities to polytechnic education in Nigeria, as well as the exploration of possible alternative sources of funding by the management of tertiary institutions in Nigeria as supplements.
