This research aims to present a successful model for implementation of knowledge management in physical education faculties of Islamic Azad University. The statistical population of this research was the faculty members of physical education faculties of Islamic Azad University(160 Persons). The validity of the questionnaire obtained from 14 experts and reliability of test was determined by Cronbach’s alpha statistic method(%76.6). Single-sample t test was used for data analysis and statistical hypothesis testing. Confirmatory factor analysis was used to identify latent variables. For testing of hypotheses, the structural equation model by SPSS and LISREL statistical software was used. The findings of research showed that Information technology infrastructures are highly effective for implementation of knowledge management. Research findings also showed that the status of information technology infrastructures at physical education Faculties of Islamic Azad University is not good enough. According to significance level (P value > 0.05), access to network infrastructure with highest variance (0.345) and then access to softwares (0.278) explain the success of knowledge management. Without having the proper infrastructure in this area, campuses cannot efficiently perform both general and traditional role in the creation and dissemination of knowledge. For this reason, increased investment for developing of infrastructure of information technology is suggested.
