2024-25 Staff Performance Evaluations (SPA) – important dates

Dear Student Life Career Staff,

 It's that time of the year again - the performance evaluation period for the 2024-25 year is here! We want to ensure a smooth process for everyone involved, so please take note of the following dates and guidelines:

 Accessing the Performance Appraisal Tool:

• The online Performance Appraisal tool is now open for Policy Covered staff (non-union).
• Access the tool through the Student Life Business Office website under the Human Resources tab.
• If you encounter any difficulties accessing your evaluation in the SPA tool, it might be due to your last evaluation not being completely closed out. First check to see if you need to sign a prior year’s appraisal and then inform me and your supervisor if you experience any issues.
