Abstract:
The study assessed employees’ satisfaction with employers support for higher education
at Ecobank Ghana Limited. Data for the study was obtained from a sample of one
hundred (100) respondents through self-administered questionnaires. Both qualitative and
quantitative data were used for the study. The results indicated that training and
development help improve employees’ performance within organizations, the study
showed that the input from employers was minimal or non-existent. It was realized that
employers did not pay any of the tuition fee of employees, employers did not pay part of
the tuition fee. Among the recommendations made were that employers hardly encourage
employees when embarking on masters and post graduate programmes even though
employers do not pay for such programmes. To ensure the confidence of employees,
employers should encourage employees when they desire to pursue higher education as
such employees will in the end contribute to the development of the organization.
