The study looked at the attitude towards research and the level of engagement and explored the challenges encountered by the employees in doing research; as basis for the measures to be undertaken to address the challenges in doing research. There were a total 70 teachers, non-teaching staff and administrators who participated in the research study as respondents. The study employed the descriptive method of research. Percentage and weighted mean were used for analysis. The study revealed that the respondents generally have positive attitudes towards research. They perceived research culture, management and practices in San Pablo Colleges to be very good. However, it was found out that the research engagements of employees in San Pablo Colleges are limited. A training design was developed that will help out in building teachers’ engagement in research which will eventually lead out to the formation of research culture among the employees.
