The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between knowledge sharing and organizational learning by mediating job involvement. The population of this study consisted of all elementary teachers from Region 2 of Hamedan; from this population, a sample of 274 people was selected through simple random sampling and based on Morgan table. The research method is quantitative, descriptive and correlational, especially the structural equation modeling. The research tool was a questionnaire. The Van den Hooff & Van Weenen Knowledge Sharing Questionnaire (2004), the Neefe Organizational Learning Questionnaire (2001) and the Kanungo Job Involvement Questionnaire (1982) were used. To determine the reliability and validity of the tool, the data was collected using confirmatory factor analysis and Cronbach's alpha; the reliability coefficient of knowledge sharing, organizational learning and job involvement questionnaires were 0.990, 0.927 and 0.820, respectively. According to the results of confirmatory factor analysis, the instrument has appropriate and acceptable fitness (structural validity). To analyze the data, confirmatory factor analysis and confirmatory path analysis were performed using lisrel software. Results showed that the knowledge sharing variable has positive direct effect (0.20), indirect positive effect (0.0352) and total positive (0.223) and significant effect on organizational learning at level 0.05. The job involvement variable has positive direct effect (0.11) and total positive (0.11) and significant effect on organizational learning at level 0.05. Regarding the effects of all independent variables, it can be said that knowledge sharing (0.223) has the highest effect and job involvement (0.11) has the lowest effect on organizational learning variable. The variable of knowledge sharing with direct path coefficient (0.32) and t-value (10.75) has direct, positive and significant effect on job involvement at level 0.05. Also, the knowledge sharing variable can explain 28% of variance of job involvement. The amount of explained variance of job involvement with respect to t-value (11.19) is significant at level 0.05.
