Wolfpack Performance Program – What is it?
University Human Resources is pleased to announce the new online performance management system that will launch in April 2023. The Wolfpack Performance Program (WPP) will replace the university’s current paper-based evaluation process, removing the need to shuffle papers between supervisors, employees, and their corresponding HR units, to a seamless web based where the supervisor enters the performance and development goals and final ratings directly into the system. To see more about the new WPP watch this video.
Training – Why take it?
The Wolfpack Performance Program is a simple automated system. However, there are important changes in the performance management steps in addition to understanding how the automated program works. There are limited help features in the system, but there are informative user guides and training video guides available. It is critical the supervisors go through the online training videos or use written instructions in the user guides prior to beginning a performance plan for employees. Asynchronous, virtual and in-person training options are available. The training schedule listed below is for supervisors because supervisors initiate the process. There are user guides and videos available for employees. Please review the list of training session options and select one that is best for you.
Asynchronous Trainings
On-demand asynchronous training for SHRA employees and supervisors of SHRA employees are now available. To access the training you must register through REPORTER.
