What is Appraisal Period? for Appraisers and Appraisees (Primary and Secondary Care)
Appraisal Period (1/2) • Interview details on SOAR include names of Appraiser, Appraisee, Date & Time and Location of meeting(s) – as well as “Appraisal Period” • Appraisal Period is used to log WHEN an interview took place in fiscal years (1st April to 31st March) – rather than what materials were discussed • This is to satisfy Revalidation requirements and allows us to track whether an appraisee has been maintaining their annual appraisals • We expect appraisal discussions to be centred around material within last 12 months/since last appraisal
Appraisal Period (2/2) For example: • If an interview took place on 12th March 2014, it would fall under the Appraisal Period of 2013/2014 • The material discussed should cover the entirety of the appraisee’s work since last appraisal / past 12 months
Description of Appraisal Period on interview details page • Option to log “Review Period” if desired • e.g. Appraisal Period 2013/2014; Review Period 2012/2013 4
