University
Performance evaluationThe performance evaluation cycle for the university follows the calendar year. Performance evaluations will typically become available to employees in early December and are due in early March. Performance evaluations are based on the employee's major job responsibilities, as outlined in their job descriptions.
- All full- and part-time employees who were hired before October 1 of the evaluation year are expected to complete a campus performance evaluation.
- Faculty and STEPS employees do not participate in the campus performance evaluation process.
A set of core competencies, encompassing the university's shared common goals, is also included in the campus performance evaluation, but not weighted toward the overall score.
