Abstract	The core purpose of this study was to examine the attitudes of Iraqi faculty members toward e-learning at all governmental nursing colleges, as well as to explore the relationship between their attitudes toward e-learning and their socio-demographic characteristics, beside other related variables. Forty-four faculty members were purposively targeted to respond to the study questionnaire, which was constructed to examine their attitude toward e-learning by using typical five-level Likert item. Self-administrative report technique was employed to collect the data. Data were analyzed by the application of descriptive statistical analysis, which were; percentages, frequencies, means and standard deviation. Inferential statistical analysis on the other hand used mean scores and Alpha correlation, t-test. The findings of the study revealed that Iraqi nursing faculty attitude towards e-learning is moderately to highly positive. There was no significant relationship between faculty attitude toward e-learning and the most variables. However, a significant difference. Therefore, it is highly recommended to highlight the hindering factors that contributed in shaping faculty negative attitude toward e-learning as well as the motivating factors that contributed in shaping faculty positive attitude toward e-learning since this would enhance educational policy-makers understanding consequently empower them to design and conduct tailored action plans toward adopting e-learning at the national level.
