ePDR: electronic Personal Development Review
Reviewee: The person completing their PDR
Reviewer: Usually the line manager, this is the person commenting and reviewing the PDR
Share: This will send the ePDR to your Reviewer for them to read and add comments
Sign Off: This is the final step of the PDR and should only be completed after the PDR meeting. Both reviewer and reviewee need to sign off to confirm they agree with the objectives and comments set out in the PDR

ePDR FAQ
Click on the tab “My Reviewee’s”. If your reviewee is not listed there this could be because they have not yet been allocated a form (e.g. new starter) or you are not listed as their line manager in the HR System. Please contact the HR Team HR@phc.ox.ac.uk
ePDR FAQ
If your default reviewer is incorrectly listed on the form please contact the HR Team HR@phc.ox.ac.uk. It is not possible for you to change the default reviewer. If you would like an additional reviewer, for example if you’ve changed job roles recently and would like your former line manager to add comments you can select an additional reviewer by clicking ‘Add’. Please note both the default and additional reviewer will need to approve this selection and both ‘sign off’ the form at the end of the PDR.
ePDR FAQ
Reviewee should check that the correct Reviewer is listed on their form (see FAQ above). The reviewee should then ensure that they have clicked Share at the top of the form and not only ‘save and close’. As a reviewer search again for the form under ‘My Reviewee’s’, not the form under the ‘Me’ tab as this is your form to complete.
ePDR FAQ
There may be a number of reasons for this including not having set a meeting date yet or that changes have not yet been shared by the reviewee or reviewer. In your form check the drop down box ‘Why can’t I sign off yet?” for a precise answer.
