This study was designed to evaluate some aspects of the question of whether the perceived need for two-year colleges are needed in Yemen. Special attention was given to surveying the views of Yemeni educators. Based on a review of literature on two-year colleges in the USA and several other countries, a model for adapting educational programs was presented. A questionnaire survey was conducted among educators in Sanaa University and in three major cities of Yemen: Sanaa (the capital), Taiz, and Al-Hodeidah. The total number of distributed questionnaires was 560, and 359 usable responses were received (64.1%). The participants (the faculty members of Sanaa University, administrators of governmental organizations, and high school instructors and superintendents) were requested to give their opinions of the need for, adaptability of, and applicability of two-year teacher training, agricultural, technical/vocational, business administration, and academic transfer programs in Yemen, based on their evaluation of needs in the following sectors: economic, social, manpower, and educational. An interview instrument was also used with some governmental organization officials. Chi-square (X2) was used to determine significant relationships among the responses of several groups. Survey results showed overwhelming agreement among respondents that two-year colleges and programs in each of the five program areas were desirable. There were some differences in the strength of agreement with less support expressed for academic transfer programs. Older respondents, non-Yemeni respondents, and women were less strongly supportive of academic transfer programs. The dissertation concludes with a recommendation for the establishment of four two-year colleges.
