Abstract:
This study was purposed to explore the challenges and prospects for quality higher education through effective e learning management in Zambian Private Universities with special reference to Acacia University Zambia (AUZ) (pseudo). In order to gain in-depth understanding of the phenomena, the study adopted a case study method which incorporated a qualitative paradigm. A purposive sampling criteria was adopted in which persons in line faculty portfolios (deans, HoDs, directors) were subjected to an in-depth structured interview to probe the issues incidental to the delivery of education services through e learning platforms as occasioned by the tragic advent of the COVID-19 pandemic. The students from the medical faculty were equally subjected to a semi-structured interview as to their experiential perspective on the available institutional e learning platforms.
