Abstract: This study examines the impact of Tertiary Education Trust Fund (TETFund) intervention on staff development in three tertiary institutions in Kogi State: Prince Abubakar Audu University (PAAU) Anyigba, Kogi State Polytechnic, and Federal College of Education Okene. Focused on the challenges of inadequate education financing in Africa, particularly Nigeria, the study aims to (1) review the TETFund Intervention Policy and (2) assess its effects on staff development in Nigerian universities. Utilizing a survey research design, data were collected from 1,098 respondents through structured questionnaires and interviews. The analysis, employing descriptive and inferential statistics, highlights the positive impact of TETFund intervention on infrastructure, staff training, and institutional development. The findings underscore the need for sustained funding with rigorous monitoring for Nigerian tertiary institutions.

Keywords: Tertiary Education, TETFund, Policy Implementation, Staff Development.
