Performance Management System

At Alberta Finance there is a performance management system in place where employees and their supervisors engage in outlining performance goals for the year based on the current business plan. The performance goals then form the basis for supervisor feedback and self-assessment throughout the year.

As part of the performance management system, employees, in conjunction with their supervisor, create a learning and development plan for the year. The learning and development plan supports current and future needs of the organization as well as current and future goals of employees. It addresses enhancing current knowledge and skills, and developing knowledge and skills for the future, related to the current role or to career development goals.
