Performance evaluations for classified and unclassified employees will take place over the next several weeks. March 18 through May 29 has been designated as the time to conduct the 2015 online performance evaluations for classified employees. The unclassified performance evaluation period is scheduled for April 1 through June 5.

Managers and supervisors of classified employees will receive email notifications in March with detailed information regarding the process and access instructions. As a reminder, recent enhancements include a performance log that can be used by employees throughout the year to record personal accomplishments, trainings and discussions.

There are also two webinars available for supervisors and managers. The first, “Navigating the Online Evaluation Process,” will familiarize evaluators with the online assessment tool and will be offered on April 2 from 2-3 p.m. and again on April 28 from 10-11 a.m. The second webinar, “Assessing and Improving the Performance of Others,” is for new managers and supervisors and will be offered on April 7 from 2-3 p.m.

Evaluators can register for either of these webinars on the performance evaluation resource page at http://tinyurl.com/performresources. If you are unable to attend one of the sessions, they will be recorded and available for viewing a few days after the presentation.

If a department would like a human resources representative to come to their unit and present an overview of the evaluation process, contact Karen Watson at 330-672-4636 or Janine Bogden at 330-672-8526.
