Summary/Abstract: The paper explores the concept of organizational learning capability among Romanian universities and links it to performance on education. The research aims at determining the components of organizational learning capability, based on a scale from literature, that is translated and adapted. For performance on education a scale is proposed by the author. The study comprises part of Romanian universities and is based on 357 valid questionnaires from teachers/ researchers. Exploratory factor analysis was applied and four components have resulted for organizational learning capability: participative decision making; experimentation and risk taking; dialogue; interaction with the external environment. Three components have resulted for performance on education: customers/ beneficiaries perspective; learning and development perspective; internal processes perspective. Correlations between the components that resulted for the construct „organizational learning capability” and components for the construct „performance in education” are analysed.
