The instrument's accuracy was verified by the human resources department of Niger Delia University, and its reliability was confirmed through a test-retest procedure yielding a reliability coefficient of 0.5. The study's findings indicate a significant influence on the impact of managing human resource on administrative efficiency in Bayelsa State's public secondary schools.
