The present study aims to explore the perceptions of healthcare postgraduate students regarding the adaptability of e-learning and Web-based courses. Methods: The research was based on the four dimensions of the Technology Acceptance Model, i.e. Perceived usefulness, Perceived ease of use, Attitude towards use and Behavioural intention. A questionnaire covering these 4 dimensions was created, uploaded on a website and the 39 MSc students enrolled in the Healthcare Management and Health Informatics at the Faculty of Nursing, University of Athens, Greece, invited to complete it. Completed questionnaires were analysed using Partial Least Squares and other statistical techniques. Results: A total of 20 questionnaires were fully completed. Analysis of the results demonstrated that postgraduate students appreciate and perceive usefulness and ease of use as key factors towards using e-learning platforms and online courses. Conclusion: The study has a number of limitations including the small sample size. For that reason, we conducted a downsized modeling scenario in order to produce observations and compare results, in terms of validity. Nevertheless despite these limitations, the current study can be useful in helping to guide the development and implementation of e-learning initiatives. © The Journal on Information Technology in Healthcare 2009.</style></abstract><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cited by: 0</style></notes></record></records></xml>
