Description: This study seeks to explore the factors that determine the level of instructors' acceptance of the e-learning platform at the University of the West Indies (UWI), St. Augustine Campus. The Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) model was used to evaluate responses from over 600 instructors. Four important factors, i.e. subjective norms, facilitating conditions, perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use were core to the UTAUT model. After using exploratory factor analysis and structural equation modelling three of the four factors emerged as significant; facilitating conditions, perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness.
