PREP 2013 Timeline

What should be happening now?

Supervisors and Employees should schedule meetings beginning April 25 to discuss the Performance Review Evaluation Plan (PREP) and FY14 Goals.

What do I need to know about FY14 Goal Setting?

The PREP meeting between Supervisors and Employees should also include a discussion on goals for the coming year.  More information on the FY14 goal setting process can be found on the PREP page on AbtNet.

I was hired after December 31, 2012.  Do I need to set goals?

Yes!  Work with your Supervisor to establish goals for the coming year.  Even though you are not participating in PREP 2013, you will want to set goals for FY14.

Where should I document my FY14 Goals?

You can keep them anywhere you like (e.g. in email, on paper or in a Word document).  On the AbtNet PREP page in Documents, you will find FY14 Goal Setting, which can be used to capture your goals.  Whatever method you choose, just be sure to save them!  Later this year when HR Platform is ready, your FY14 goals will be input into the new system.

After my PREP Meeting, what is next?

Once your meeting and goal discussion has taken place, your Supervisor may edit the PREP to reflect the meeting discussion.  You can then sign it and begin the steps to close it out.  Follow Steps 7 – 10 in the Workflow below.

One more thing….

PREP time is a great time to update your resume.  While this is not a PREP task and not covered by the PREP charge code, current resumes are important for bid and proposals.  Go to AbtNet, select AbtKnowledge on the home page and click on Update My Resume/Profile.
