Why are organisations choosing Totara Learn for Performance Appraisal?.

Today, more than ever, the achievement of your organisational objectives is dependent upon the knowledge, skills and experience of your workforce. Performance management is a core business practice. It revolves around the ability to give staff constructive feedback so that they can improve the quality of their work. Company goals and/or individual goals are defined and may be assigned to staff based on the position they hold, the organisation they work in or other factors. Staff are assessed on their progress toward these goals through feedback provided by their peers, managers and any nominated appraisers within the organisation.

Do you struggle to make appraisal happen in your organisation? Do you know which staff are competent? Do you know which staff are not competent and what there training needs are? You are not alone!
