Good afternoon


I have spent some time this afternoon playing with Totara Perform and I am very excited about what it is going to do for my organisation. The performance activities are a huge improvement on the Totara Learn V12 appraisals.

The one thing I do have a question on; in the V12 appraisals functionality you could bring into an appraisal the review of an objective or a competency and even adjust the status of competencies from within the review. I cannot see that this is replicated in Totara Perform. Can you confirm that is the case and also if there is any plan to reintroduce (and improve on) that feature.

I would love to see the ability to review and set objectives from within a performance activity as well as the old feature of managing competencies statuses.

Many thanks

Becki.

Hi Becki.

To introduce myself.  I'm the product owner for Perform

Thanks, I'm pleased you're seeing the value.

We've begun developing the review question you are talking about in v14.  in v14 you are able to add competency content to a performance activities.  The functionality we've built to deliver this is (I think) a significant improvement on what is available in v12.  For instance participants can rate the competency from the activity.

We'll add the ability to bring Goal content into an activity for v14.1.  Learning and Evidence will follow in v15.

As part of v15 we'll also be working on the current Goals feature.  I hope we can consolidate objectives in Learning plans with Goals in the work for v15 (I hope).

I hope this helps
