Talent Ed

Effective January 2016 Support Staff will be evaluated using a new set of forms.  The forms were developed collaboratively with building Administrators and Supervisors and shared with Union leaders for feedback.  The goals of the new forms are as follows:

• Implement a paperless performance evaluation system.

• Use key performance indicators common to all Support Staff.

• Reduce, simplify, and standardize the performance indicators and rating scale.

• Make the primary purpose of evaluation about employee development.

The major changes you will see are as follows:

• Evaluations will be completed through an online system called Talent Ed. It is the same system currently being used for Teacher evaluations.

• The rating scale has been reduced from four levels (or in some cases 5 levels) of performance to three levels:

• Exceeds expectations

• Meets expectations

• Does not meet expectations

For all Support Staff,  the first three evaluation categories are the same:

• Professionalism

• Communication and Relationships

• Quality of Work

• The fourth category is job-specific

There is also a self-evaluation and goal-setting option (not required).  The intent is to open communication between evaluators and staff regarding goals and performance. 

• If you are on cycle for evaluation this school year (2015/16) you should have received a link from Talent Ed with your User name and Password.  Talent Ed is the on-line system we will use for Evaluations starting January 2016 for Support Staff (already in place for certified staff starting 2014/15). 

• If you are NOT on cycle for evaluation this school year, you will NOT receive a link to Talent Ed at this time.

If you would like to view the evaluation forms, they can be found in PDF format on Inside 203 – HR
