RE:
Non-Faculty Employee Performance Evaluation Training for New Supervisors
In accordance with the Texas A&M University System Regulation 33.99.03, Performance
Evaluation for Non-Faculty Employees, you are required to complete a performance evaluation
for each non-faculty employee (staff) annually. To assist you in evaluating your employee in an
objective manner and to be compliant with The Texas A&M University System Regulation
33.99.03, we have established a number of training sessions for your convenience. All new
supervisors, and those in need of a performance evaluation refresher, must attend one of the
trainings.
The purpose of the evaluation is to inform each employee of the quality of his/her work, to
identify those areas needing improvement, and to set specific objectives for the employee. In
your position as a supervisor, this process will assist you in evaluating your workforce, identifying
employee potential, and establishing priorities for training, education, and reward.
Performance evaluations for non-faculty employees will encompass the period beginning
January 1, 2015 and ending December 31, 2015. The deadline for the submission of completed
forms to your respective vice president is March 7, 2016. Performance Evaluation Form, with all
required signatures is due to the Office of Human Resources no later than April 11, 2016. It is
highly recommended that we adhere to the aforementioned deadlines.
In addition, all position descriptions must be modified in the PVTALENT System to reflect the
employee’s current job responsibilities and must be discussed with your employee during the
performance evaluation review. For a tutorial on the steps to modify and/ or route without
changes the employees position description, please refer to the following link:

All training sessions will be held in the Harrington Science Building, Room 101.
