Findings revealed that management attitude and support positively affect integration of ICTs in the teaching and learning process.There is need for institutions to integrate ICTs through provision of appropriate resources, skills and infrastructure.Administration should appreciate dynamics, use and benefits of ICTs to change beliefs, feelings, thoughts and reluctance for successful integration of ICTs.
