Data was collected interview personal with questionnaire, simple correlation coefficient, multiple correlation and regression analysis "step — wise ", were used to analyze the data . The major results of this study were as follows: 1. 68.81 % of respondents had either low or moderate attitudes towards extension training. This indicated that the attitudes of extension Agents towards extension training were relatively low. 2.
