E-Learning, Technology Mediated education and virtual university are similar terms for a trend of the modern educational approach. It is about the integration of modern information and Communication technologies (ICTs) such as computer systems, and communication tools to support educational professionals with a particular focus on quality improvement and cost efficiency. This paper presents an empirical study on the e-Learning strategy and its implementation at the Saudi Higher Education institution from the perspective of strategy, people, and technology. A survey instrument administered to faculty members at different universities was used to measure how ready higher education organizations towards the application of ICTs are in the educational process; A particular focus has been made on the attitudes of faculty members towards the implementation of the e- Learning approach as a strategy for higher education quality improvement and achieving academic excellence.
