Abstract
The availability of tutor management support services provide the needed guidance, direction and assistance to tutors in the performance of their duties and help overcome diverse challenges they face – professional, personal, material and emotional that can potentially affect their work. The study explored management support services in public colleges of education in the Ashanti Region of Ghana. Four research questions and a hypothesis guided the study. Using the census sampling technique all tutors and all principals were used for the study. Data were collected using the questionnaire, and analysed using means and standard deviations, and chi square. Findings include existence of orientation for new tutors and performance appraisal. It was concluded that in-service programmes help tutors to improve upon their skills, and study leave is the preferred incentive for tutors. It is recommended that principals in colleges of education in the Ashanti Region should ensure that orientation programmes are organised for newly recruited tutors. Again, principals of the colleges should be encouraged to continually ensure that tutors are appraised on their performance.
