Abstract: The Six Sigma methodology has become a frequently used term in discussions regarding quality management and it is considered to be an important management philosophy, which supports organizations in their efforts to obtain satisfied customers. In this study, we proposed Six Sigma methodology to improve the Job Performance in the Technical and Vocational Training Corporation (TVTC) in Saudi Arabia. We focus on three dimensions in our study; first: preparations for the application of the Six Sigma methodology in TVTC, second: the application requirements of Six Sigma methodology, and third: the application of the Six Sigma methods affects Improve Job performance in TVTC. Since the neural of Six Sigma methodology depends on the mediator statistical analysis, we suggest using the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to test the proposed Six Sigma model in TVTC. From SEM results, we find that the Six Sigma preparations have a significant effect on the application requirements and that the application requirements have a significant effect on the Job performance in TVTC. Based on that, we recommend using the Six Sigma methodology in TVTC to improve the performance of these corporations.
