Institutional Appraisal System for Teaching and Non-Teaching Staff of SUMCTE
SUM College of Teacher Education is committed to academic excellence and holistic institutional development through ensuring the ongoing improvement of both teaching and non-teaching staff. The Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC) spearheads the performance appraisal system for both faculty and non-teaching personnel, recognizing the indispensable role each plays in the progress and academic vibrancy of the college. These assessments take place annually, at the end of each academic year, monitored by the IQAC Cell and Principal.
The primary objective of this appraisal system is to recognize, encourage, and facilitate the professional and personal development of the staff. By systematically evaluating their performance, it provides a structured mechanism for feedback, personal improvement, and career progression. The appraisal system is crucial as it:
- Identifies strengths and areas that need improvement for staff members
- Encourages a culture of continuous learning, innovation, and professional growth
- Recognizes and rewards exceptional contributions and achievements
- Fosters a sense of accountability and motivation among the staff to excel in their roles
This appraisal system not only serves as a tool for assessing individual performance but also contributes to overall institutional growth and quality enhancement.
