How does self-assessment play a role in the JEPES evaluation process?

Self-assessment is a crucial part of the JEPES evaluation process as it empowers individuals to reflect on their own performance prior to official assessment. This introspection allows them to identify their strengths and areas for improvement, providing a basis for personal and professional development. By engaging in self-assessment, individuals can set specific goals and prepare for discussions during the evaluation process, ensuring that the feedback received aligns with their self-perception and allows for more meaningful dialogue with supervisors. This proactive approach fosters a growth mindset, encouraging continuous learning and adaptation within the structured evaluation framework. Such reflection contributes to more accurate evaluations by aligning individual perceptions with the evaluators’ observations, ultimately leading to more effective developmental discussions and planning.
