Abstract This investigation measured the accordance of Isfahan education organization features with learning organization in three individual, team, and organizational areas. It tried to distinguish the respondents’ attitude towards education organization as a learning organization based on age, educational level, and teaching experience. The method employed here was descriptive survey study and the study population was high school teachers of 5 regions of Isfahan education organization in educational year of 2005-2006. The selection was made through cluster random sampling and 260 persons were selected from regions of 2,3 and 4 by sample size selection formula. Out of this number,18 did not answer the questions completely, so they were excluded from the study and the remaining 242 were included. The data gathering instruments were questionnaires of learning organization aspects, Atkins, and Marsik. The data was analyzed in two stages of descriptive statistics (frequency, percent, mean, and standard deviation) and inferential (one-sample t-test and one way ANOVA). The results showed that the education organization features in individual and organizational areas were in accordance with learning organization’s features but there was no harmony in group area. The attitude of persons in learning organization showed a meaningful difference just in individual area based on teaching experience.
