This study investigates the structural relationships among perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness,
attitude toward use, and acceptance of Learning Management Systems (LMS) among faculty members in
Philippine higher education. Grounded in the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and validated through
Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM), the study surveyed 306 faculty from
selected State Universities and Colleges (SUCs) in Leyte and Biliran. Results revealed that perceived ease
of use significantly influenced both perceived usefulness and attitude toward LMS use, while perceived
usefulness had a strong positive effect on both attitude and LMS acceptance. Additionally, attitude toward
LMS use emerged as the most substantial predictor of actual LMS acceptance. The measurement model
demonstrated strong reliability and validity, and the structural model indicated high explanatory power
and predictive relevance. These findings affirm the applicability of TAM in the Philippine academic context
and highlight the critical role of faculty attitudes in driving successful LMS adoption. The study recommends
institutional strategies that enhance system usability, provide targeted training, and cultivate positive
faculty attitudes to support sustainable digital transformation in higher education.
