The researchers distributed (119) questionnaires, as well as field interviews as tools to enhance the research. The research adopted the statistical program (SPSS V.25, AMOS V.25) with the adoption of descriptive statistics and inference methods (Linearity test, normal distribution test, confirmatory factor analysis, structural modeling, arithmetic mean, percentages, standard deviation, relative importance, coefficient of variation, Pearson correlation coefficient, simple regression coefficient, path analysis, and Sobel test) to test the hypotheses, and the research shed light on its conclusions, which showed the validity of the hypotheses that represent the direct impact of job integration on the development of institutional performance.
