    The study analyzed Human Resource Management Practices in Public Polytechnic in North Central Geo- Political Zone, Nigeria. The study was guided by four objectives, with corresponding four research questions and hypotheses. The study used cross-sectional survey research design. The total population for the study comprised of 6,228 respondents (made up of 20 Registrars, 4, 121 academic staffs and 2, 087 nonacademic staff) from the 10 public polytechnics in North Central Geo-political zone, Nigeria. The sample size of this study consists of 842 respondents (20 Registrars, 408 academic staff and 414 non-academic staff) drawn from 10 public polytechnics in six (6) states that constitute North Central Geo-Political zone, Nigeria. The study used two (2) instruments for data collection. The instruments are semi-structured interview for Registrars of public polytechnics and questionnaire on Human Resource Management Practices in Public Polytechnics (QHRMPPP). The instruments were pilot tested on 5 schools and 50 staff in Federal Polytechnic Bauchi. Cronbach Alpha coefficient statistical tool of estimating reliability was used to determine the coefficient of internal consistency of the 2 instruments. The coefficient of internal consistency of 0.71 was obtained. The study found among others that difference exist between Human Resource Practices in Public Polytechnics in North Central Geo-political Zone, Nigeria, as federal polytechnics were more effective because of the adequate funds at their disposal than their state counterparts, which they normally utilize in undertaking human resource activities. The study recommended that public polytechnics in the North Central Geo-Political Zone Nigeria need to synergize with NBTE to organize workshops, seminars and symposia for all the staff of the various institutions to enable them update knowledge and skills needed for conducting and management of all Human Resource activities in their institutions
