As the information of technology continues to expand around the world, Belize and its educational institutions have been opening to change in the way learning is being conducted through the form of e-learning. A research by the University of Belize has evaluated their information systems: Moodle into eight constructs: Information Quality, System Quality, Complimentary Technology, Self-Efficacy Measure, Service Quality, User Satisfaction, Use and Perceived Net Benefits. The eight constructs support the overall characteristics of Moodle which also help breakdown a better understanding of the success of the University of Belize’s information system. Being equipped in a third world country, Moodle which is a Learning Management System (LMS) or e-Learning platform still has more possibilities to be enhanced at the University of Belize in order to be able to serve educators and learners. In order to measure the success of Moodle, 120 students evaluated the eight constructs of Moodle. The aim of this research was to evaluate the success of Moodle through the eight constructs and provide recommendations in how to enhance the information systems at the University of Belize.
