This study aims to analyze the effect of job training on employee performance, with work ability as an intervening variable at the Education and Culture Office of Medan City, North Sumatra Province. The problem raised in this study is that the improvement of employee performance has not been optimal even though promotion and training programs have been implemented. This study uses a quantitative approach with a survey method. The research sample amounted to 113 permanent employees in the Elementary School and Coaching unit, which was selected from a total of sampling. The data analysis technique uses Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) based on Partial Least Square (PLS). These findings indicate that improving individual competencies is key in optimizing the results of human resource management policies. Therefore, it is recommended that organizations continue to encourage performance-based promotions and training that are in line with work needs to improve overall employee performance.
