abstract

E-learning as a popular learning approach utilized by many organizations has become an important trend in recent years. It generally refers to the use of computer network technology, primarily over an intranet or through the Internet, to deliver information and instruction to individuals. It allows training to reach diverse and geographically dispersed workforces in a cost-efficient manner, and can take place on-demand and at a lesser cost than on-site training. Also, employee commitment is a dominant source of competitive advantage of many organizations and thus, has been drawn to its reported ability to solve intractable organizational challenges. Therefore, this study aimed to discuss the relationship between e-learning systems and employees commitment. The target samples of this study are the employees of the Islamic Azad University (the world's third largest university), Tabriz branch. For statistical analysis of questionnaires, we have used of the SMARTPLS 2.0 software package. Findings from the study confirmed the validity of the proposed model for employee's commitment assessment. In addition, the results showed that the four variables, learner's satisfaction, 24/7 access to training materials, personalized learning, and efficiency, significantly influenced employee's commitment

5. Findings and discussion

The measurement model in PLS is assessed in terms of inter-construct correlations, item-to-construct correlations, Cronbach's alphas, composite reliabilities, and the average variance extracted for each construct (Ruiz, Gremler, Washburn & Carrion, 2010 ). An item was considered to be reliable if its loading was greater than 0.7. The convergent validity was assessed by using average variance extracted (AVE), which must exceed a standard minimum level of 0.5 (Fornell & Larcker, 1981). The reliability of the measures was examined through the use of composite reliability and Cronbach's alpha. In general, the minimum value of composite reliability is 0.7 (Nunnally, 1978), and the minimum value of Cronbach's alpha is 0.7 (Cronbach, 1951; Setbon & Raude, 2010). The discriminant validity was assessed using the square root of average variance extracted and latent variable correlations. The square root of average variance extracted of each construct should exceed the correlation shared between one construct and other constructs in the model (Huang, Huang, Huang & Lin, 2012a). Tables 2 and 3 show the results of the measurement model to be acceptable since all the values met the standard levels.
