Abstract: The purpose of this study is to propose a feasible method of analyzing training needs by job levels in higher education. A questionnaire on training needs for 30 competency items was distributed among the staff of National University Corporation A, and 360 responses were collected. This study proposed to examine training needs and determine priorities by adding importance of competency besides the t-test, Borich needs assessment, and Locus for Focus model analysis. The results of analyzing training needs and deriving priorities offer implications to design training programs for different job levels and can promote career development of university staff.
