NP 3-31g - Appendix G - Standard Faculty Performance Plan and Evaluation form

Standard Faculty Performance Plan and Evaluation Form

Employee Name: _____________________________ S-Number: _____________________

Supervisor Name: _____________________________ Department: ____________________

Evaluation Period From: __________ To: __________ Campus: _______________________

Previous Years Evaluation: ____ Standard _____ Abbreviated

This form is meant to be used in conjunction with NP3-31 which outlines the basis, definitions, and procedures of the evaluation procedure. If there is a discrepancy between this form and NP3-31, procedures set forth in NP3-31 will take precedence.

It is important to note the change of focus from the previous NP3-31. There is much less emphasis on goals and more emphasis on excellence within the faculty members’ individual role. Additionally, the focus on efforts to complete goals should also be incorporated into conversations. Conversations should focus on the faculty members, “documented responsibilities, job description, and efforts to complete goals”.

The performance evaluation process is a collaborative effort between the faculty member and their supervisor. It is important that faculty member and supervisor collaborate on this document throughout the year and that each party understands the expectations of the other party. There are a minimum of three (3) required meetings throughout the year and the faculty member should complete (by typing) the appropriate section for each meeting prior to meeting with their supervisor.

Meeting 1 – Initial plan (May 15 – September 30); agreement should be reached on roughly 2 – 5 opportunities for innovation, development, and/or improvement in teaching and roughly 2 – 5 opportunities for college service across the entire academic year. Goals and objectives for each faculty member must be approved by the Vice President for Academic Affairs prior to September 30^th.

Meeting 2 – Mid-year changes (by February 15^th); the faculty member and supervisor will meet and document any significant adjustments or concerns for inclusion on this form.

Meeting 3 – End-of-year summary (April 15 to June 15); faculty member will prepare a reflective summary of their activities for the year including the contribution and outcome of those activities to teaching, service and their performance goals.

Faculty Initial Plan (May 15 – September 30).

focus on how your goals did or did not achieve your desired outcome, how these outcomes may be reflected in next year’s goals, and progress on any multi-year goals.
