The use of Information and Communication Technology (lCT) is assumed to transform learning in learning institutions. E-learning being one of the modes of content delivery in learning has gained acceptance in educational institutions in Kenya. However key challenges associated with e-learning in education include quality, equity, relevance and standards thereby presenting various challenges in the Kenya educational institutions with regard to its implementation.

The study used online users specifically in educational institutions within Nairobi County as the target population. The study employed a survey research design. Findings suggested that there are differences in e-learning requirements across educational institutions thereby posing a great danger in terms of educational standards, quality and equity. Findings also show that various social network;" though popular have not been fully integrated in our e-Iearning system. New methods of content delivery suggested go along way in improving learning processes hence the quality, access, standards and relevance of education is harnessed. An architecture design model for e -learning a product of an e-learning needs assessment forms the benchmark for e-learning for institutions of learning. The findings and recommendations from the study will eventually may be used to reform e-learning programmes and improving on tutor proficiency for quality online instruction in institutions of higher learning.
