Calculating Scores in the Assessment Template

When you perform an assessment for a person, you record a score against each competence (within the framework of a job or position). Oracle Human Resources gives you the freedom to calculate the scores in a variety of ways to fully meet the needs of your enterprise. For example, you might want to calculate the scores just by taking performance against the competencies into consideration, or you might want to calculate the scores by taking performance, proficiency and weighting into consideration, and to apply the weighting to proficiency. (You can of course, only apply weighting to performance or proficiency, not to both.)

To make it easier for you, we provide several assessment types for you to choose from. These are:

Assessment Type Calculates Score By
Performance Performance
Proficiency Proficiency
Proficiency and Performance Proficiency x Performance
Proficiency and Performance, with Weighting applied to Performance Performance x Weighting
Proficiency and Performance, with Weighting applied to proficiency Proficiency x Weighting
Performance with Weighting applied to performance Performance x Weighting
Proficiency with Weighting applied to proficiency Proficiency x Weighting

We provide you with a couple of examples to illustrate how the scores vary, depending upon how you calculate them.

Example 1: Proficiency with Weighting Applied to Proficiency

Figure 1 - 32 illustrates the scores where an assessment based on proficiency, with weighting applied to proficiency.

Example 2: Proficiency and Performance with Weighting Applied to Performance

Figure 1 - 33 illustrates an assessment based on proficiency and performance, with weighting applied to performance.
