In Nigeria, tertiary education refers to the level of education acquired after secondary education in higher institutions of learning such as universities, polytechnics, colleges of education and other institutions of higher learning offering correspondence courses, diplomas and certificates (Famade et al. , 2015) . The goals of tertiary education in Nigeria as stipulated in the national policy on education (NPE, 2013) shall be to  \na) Contribute to national development through high level manpower training.  \nb) Provide accessible and affordable quality learning opportunities in formal and informal education in response to the needs and interests of all Nigerians.  \nc) Provide high quality career counseling and lifelong learning programmes that prepare students with the knowledge and skills for self-reliance and the world of work.  \nd) Reduce skill shortages through the production of skilled manpower relevant to the needs of the labour market.  \ne) Promote and encourage scholarship, entrepreneurship and community service.  \nf) Forge and cement national unity, and  \ng) Promote national and international understanding and interaction.  \nIt is in this regard that nations all over the world invest heavily on the development of higher education. Arikewuyo and Ilusanya (2010), quoting the United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) stated that universities worldwide stand on three major principles, which are:  \ni. The right to pursue knowledge for its own sake and to follow wherever the search for truth may lead,  \nii. The tolerance of divergent opinion and freedom from political interference, and  \niii. The obligation as social institutions to promote, through teaching and research, the principles of freedom and justice, of human dignity and solidarity, and to lead mutually material and moral aid on an international level. Emphasizing the importance of tertiary education in national development, Johnstone (2006) opines that higher institutions as an agent of change, national growth  \nand instrument for the realization of collective aspiration should contribute to the development of the entire education system through teacher education, curriculum development and educational research thereby providing the crucial mass skills and educated populace needed by any country to ensure genuine sustainable development.  \nPRODUCTIVITY IN TERTIARY INSTITUTIONS  \nProductivity refers to the amount of output produced per work hour. According to Mali (1978), it is a measure of how resources are brought together in organizations and utilized in accomplishing a set of results. It is about reaching the highest level of performance wit","cbCaibyWwNG8f85v","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaibyWwNG8f85v","pdf",51917,"English","# Introduction\n# Productivity in Tertiary Institutions\n# Strategies for Enhancing Workers’ Productivity\n# Implications for Tertiary Education","[{\"question\":\"What does the paper say productivity means in tertiary institutions?\",\"answer\":\"Productivity is described as output produced per work hour and as the effective use of resources to achieve results with least expenditure.
