This process is designed to facilitate the delivery of constructive feedback to help you achieve your goals and develop the skills and competencies you need to succeed.

Through the performance assessment components, you and your evaluator will work together to ensure your performance goals -- both those set by your department chair and those you set for yourself -- are clear and achievable, and you have the guidance, resources and support to develop the skills and competencies you need to be successful at every stage of your career.

The faculty development and career planning components will help you plan for your career progression.

Access the Faculty Performance and Assessment Planning system (Baylor login required).
