Performance Excellence Program (PEP)

All classified, professional-technical, and administrator employees must complete the Performance Excellence Program (PEP) annually. The PEP evaluation period generally begins in June and continues into August. ACC uses the Workday tool to access and complete the evaluation process.

Access your PEP from the Workday inbox. 

 The PEP process follows four simple steps for EVERY employee.

  • Step 1: Self-Evaluation (everyone must complete)
  • Step 2: Manager Evaluation 
  • Step 3: Employee and Manager will meet and discuss PEP
  • Step 4: Employee can comment on the evaluation and will sign off on the final version of PEP

PEP Evaluation Process and Resources

  • Goal-setting and comments – You will have the opportunity to set FY24 goals to discuss with your supervisor during your PEP meeting. Supervisors can offer feedback on the goals. 
  • Supervisor HOLD TO MEET – Supervisors will submit their completed version of the evaluation until they have met with their employees. The supervisor will click submit again after he or she has met with their employee(s). Once the second SUBMIT is clicked, the evaluation is routed to the employee(s) for their review and acknowledgment. 
  • Employee Acknowledgement – Employees complete the PEP process by signing off on their evaluation. The PEP is not complete until this step is completed. 
  • Open Information Sessions – Staff Professional Development and Evaluations will offer sessions to answer questions about the new PEP process in Workday.
  • Exemptions – If your direct report is on FMLA, has been with your team for 90 days or less or you have been in an ACC supervisory or interim role for 90 days or less, you can be granted an exemption from the PEP evaluation cycle. To be considered for an exemption, please complete the PEP Exemption form.

If you have questions, please contact Nicole Bell, Interim Manager, Staff Professional Development and Evaluations (nbell2@austincc.edu).
