The council establishes a personnel policy that governs county-paid staff. Council input is critical to this process. The Area Extension Education Director conducts the evaluation process. The area director and program director evaluate field specialist performance. Input from council members is encouraged and may be forwarded to the area director prior to February 1.
Comments are confidential and shared in summary form with the individual field specialist.
The CEED has responsibility for annually reviewing performance of county paid staff. Councils should include performance review procedures in the county personnel handbook. Ask the experts .
