The respondents or the subject and the source of the study comprised of management staff, academic and supported staff and students. For this study, from 223 (level I, II, III and IV students) 80 (35.5%) students were selected using stratified sampling technique based on the occupational title they learn which are categorized under similar sectors. From 87 academic and support staffs 30 (34.4%) staffs were selected using simple random sampling. And from 53 management staffs 23 (43.3%) were selected purposefully based on the occupational title they contain.
