Training & Performance Management

Performance Management is the systematic process by which an agency involves its employees, as individuals and members of a group, in improving organizational effectiveness in the accomplishment of agency mission and goals.

The singular function of training within performance management is to help produce change. Training facilitates the upgrading of a person’s skill or the addition of a new skill, which in turn can bring about the desired change an agency is seeking at the individual level and/or at the organizational level.

It is important to understand that training in and of itself cannot improve performance. However, training is an integral part of what is needed to accomplish individual and organizational goals.

The purpose of this page is to provide agencies with:
  • Tools to train executives on the Basis Appraisal System
  • Resources to assist in training employees, supervisors, managers and executives on performance management
Memoranda related to performance management:
The Basic Appraisal System Memo
The 2010 Government Performance Results Modernization Act (GPRA2010)
