Questionnaire, interviews, focus group discussion, reviews of documents and informal supervision were employed to gather data . Qualitative and quantitative methods (percentage/ proportion and indepe ndent group t-test), methods were used to analyze the data. The results indicated that teachers require additional training to implement continuous assessment. The assessment approach in the colleges was traditional type. There was no significant attitudinal difference towards the implementation of continuous assessment among experienced and less experienced as well as among teachers who had additional duty post and those who did not have. Poor training of teachers, material scarcity, lack of teachers' commitment, and violation of the colleges' legislation were the major factors that affect the proper implementation of continuous assessment. Measures such as conducting refreshing courses for teachers and keeping the class size to the standard as specified in the legislation may be taken to alleviate the problems.enImplementation of Continuous AssessmentThesis
