Open education through its uniqueness can organize distant education as well as spread knowledge and share information on open distance learning. The experience of qualified teaching staffs become the key to success of open education institution. The case of Universitas Terbuka provides evidence that how far each department is trying to improve performance to create quality and equitable education: flexible, open and online. The key is that learning culture has to be built which will have a positive impact to the knowledge management. By involving 99 lecturers from four faculties at Universitas Terbuka and using SEM-PLS tools, this study found the fact that the knowledge management is influenced by organizational learning culture, and knowledge management gives a positive impact to the department's performance. Leadership functions to reinforce and to support the creation of learning environment. However, organizational culture cannot influence performance. Future research can be directed to study factors that can affect the building of a good organizational learning culture.
