As you know, the site visit team also gets an opportunity to evaluate each other. Team
members and Team Chairs both rated each other an overall performance evaluation of 3.9
(4-point scale).
The 2021 evaluations of site visitors, compared to the 2020 evaluations, indicate an increase
in the Team Chair’s communication skills during the site visit process and in their ability to
mentor their team member/apprentice. Similarly, when Team Chairs evaluated Team
Members, there was an increase in their evaluation of the Team Member’s time management
skills and ability to discern between acceptable and unacceptable program policies,
procedures, and situations.
