Abstract: The need for, and retention of, knowledge workers in HEI has become important source of competitive advantage. International Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in Sub-Sahara Africa have increasingly focused their attention on the recruitment of its own citizens trained in the developed world.

Through an exploratory case study at a HEI in Sub-Sahara Africa, the study presents a model that highlights the factors that determine retention of reverse brain gain knowledge workers in international HEI.
