E-learning has gradually become more dynamic for academia and corporate training and has become one of the most substantial development and applications in Information Technologies (ITs). The base of this study is DeLone & McLean IS success model to find the factors that affect the success of electronic learning (e-learning). The human factor is used as an antecedent of DeLone & McLean IS success model with the moderating effect of web self- efficacy. The human factor (motivation, Teacher?s Attitude) has been studied the cause of e-learning system success. The aim of this paper is to find the effect of human factor on user satisfaction with the moderating effect of web self-efficacy that leads to e-learning system success. Limitations of the study and future research descriptions are recommended at the end.
