2021 PAPD Process

  1. Every academic is expected to regularly record their academic activities and keep up to date, especially their publications, in AVESİS.

  2. Application, evaluation, announcement and objection processes are carried out through the Acıbadem University Academic Performance Evaluation Process Management System (APSİS), which is in use at http://apsis.acibadem.edu.tr/ in accordance with the process calendar announced by the Rectorate.

  3. Academicians are required to add the activities they will use in their application to their personal fields in AVESİS.

  4. At the application stage, the activities of the academicians are withdrawn from AVESİS by APSİS and added to the application field. Self-assessment is also carried out by filling in the relevant fields on APSIS. However, if any, activities not defined in AVESİS and additional data requested by the Dean's Office/Directorate are added manually by the academicians to their applications via APSİS.

  5. It is extremely important that the activities declared in the application are complete and that the self-assessment and explanations for the goals are comprehensive, including all kinds of professional activities (other than clinical service) that the academicians carried out, worked on, and gave their time during the relevant period. In this way, it is aimed that the Dean/Manager, who will review the applications, can evaluate the activities of the academician holistically and completely without the need for verbal communication.

  6. The Dean's Office/Directorate reviews the applications and forwards requests for additional information/clarification, if any, to the academics via APSIS.

  7. The Dean's Office/Directorate receives the opinions of the head of the program/department/Major Field of Study for each evaluated academic.

  8. During the evaluation process, the Dean's Office/Directorate conducts face-to-face interviews with all the academicians mentioned below. However, if deemed necessary, face-to-face meetings can be held with all academics.

a. Academic personnel who completed the first full calendar year as university staff (participating in the PAPD process for the first time)

b. Academic staff assessed as “Below Expected” or “Failed” in the 2020 PAPD

c. Doctoral lecturers, lecturers and research assistants

d. Academics who ticked “I Want to Meet Face-to-face with the Dean/Manager” in the 2021 PAPD Application

e. Academics who declared “Exceeding Expected or Outstanding” in their 2021 PAPD application

  1. The Dean/Manager receives information about the work of the academician in face-to-face meetings with the academic staff participating in the PAPD process, listens to the academician about how the institution can help his research more and how his contribution to education and the institution can be increased; shares the academic evaluation of the previous year and their expectations for the next year.

  2. The Dean/Manager, taking into account the activities declared in the application, face-to-face interviews and the opinions of the heads of the programs/departments/ Major Field of Study, evaluates the total performance by category (research, education, service to the institution/community and achievements and recognition) and total performance for each academician and finalizes it on APSİS. When the Dean/Manager completes the evaluations for all the academicians in the unit, he sends the report containing the evaluation results to the Rectorate via APSİS.

  3. The scale to be used in performance evaluation is as follows:

  • Outstanding
  • Above satisfactory
  • Satisfactory
  • Needs Improvement
  • Unsatisfactory

  1. The evaluation results submitted by the relevant Dean's Office/Directorate are reviewed by the Rectorate for 2021. The Rectorate may request additional information/explanations from academics when it deems necessary. The status of the academic staff who are evaluated as successful or extraordinarily successful from the results conveyed by the relevant Dean's Office/Directorate is reviewed at the Rector's Office 2021 PAPD Commission. The Rector's Office 2021 PAPD Commission may suggest to the relevant Dean's Office/Directorate to revise the achievement level assessments made for academicians in order to ensure a standard approach throughout the University.

  2. The Rectorate communicates the performance evaluation results for all academicians to the academicians via APSİS.

  3. Academicians submit their objections to the results of the evaluation, if any, to the Rectorate via APSIS, with their justifications and supporting documents, if any, in accordance with the announced calendar.

  4. The Rectorate, in consultation with the relevant Dean/Manager, decides on the objections in accordance with the announced schedule, conveys the final evaluation decisions to the academics via APSIS and finalizes the process.

  5. The 2021 PAPD process ends. At the end of the process, a new contract is signed with the academicians whose contracts will be renewed.

  6. Exceptions:

The evaluations of academics who have previously held the positions of Rector, Vice-Rector or Dean/Manager or who are currently Vice-Rector, Dean and Director are made by the Rector. The first performance evaluation of academics who have signed a new contract is made after the first calendar year they have spent in the institution. These academics participate in the process, but their performance is not evaluated.

Academicians who are not able to apply for performance evaluation due to compelling reasons and are reported as not evaluated, can submit their requests for contract renewal by making an appointment with the Dean's Office/Directorate to which they are affiliated, until October 1, 2021.
