Performance Appraisal

Man shuffling papers

Learn about conducting a performance appraisal, the process of assessing, summarizing, and developing the work performance of an employee.

UC San Diego career employees should receive a performance appraisal annually. Employees may participate by completing a self-appraisal of their performance. Each vice chancellor area and/or department may use the online SPA system (spa.ucsd.edu) or one of the following models, according to needs and specific job classifications.  UC San Diego Campus Human Resources strongly encourages the use of the online SPA system, and this will be required in a future performance appraisal cycle to be announced.
