Overview
This online course will teach
you how to develop an easy-to-manage performance assessment system for project
team members that provides fair and objective assessment within a typical
project matrix organization.
It will help you develop
objective and measurable performance expectations for the “hard” and “soft”
skills that are essential to a project’s success. It gives the employee a way
to self-monitor their progress toward performance goals. A large administrative
load comes off the shoulders of the project departmental managers responsible
for employee performance reporting, and gives the employee’s “permanent” manager
back at headquarters a method to conduct a fair assessment even if the employee
was onsite at a distant project for most of the assessment period.
The
student must take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of thirty-five (35)
questions at the end of the course to obtain PDH credits.
