The descriptive approach was used to investigate and achieve the study's objectives. The study sample comprised six hundred teaching staff and adopted a twenty-nine-item questionnaire. The study results showed that the evaluation of the role of teaching staff at development centers in the Jordanian state universities in building academic and administrative capacities is of a high degree. Some results showed a set of suggestions from teaching staff members to improve the role of the centers.
