How is program performance evaluated?
The ERB, or one or more of its members, will gather feedback on a candidate’s performance and accomplishments from each SES supervisor with whom the candidate has worked on a rotational or developmental assignment or IDP training activity. Using this information, the ERB will discuss with each candidate his/her progress, institutional barriers, and the need for revising the candidate’s IDP objectives and activities as areas for improvement are identified. The ERB will meet periodically throughout the program with each candidate and his/her mentor to discuss the need for revising the candidate’s IDP and to assess the candidate’s progress in fulfilling the IDP objectives. At the end of the formal program, 18 to 24 months, the ERB will determine if a candidate will graduate from the program.
