# 360 Feedback FAQ

What is the difference between a rater and a ratee?

A **ratee** is the person being assessed; the leader who receives the feedback. A **rater** is a person who provides feedback on a ratee, such as their manager, a peer, a direct report, or the ratee themselves (a self-assessment).

## Who sets up and runs the 360?

360 Feedback is delivered as a **managed service**: TalentMap's Client Success team sets up and administers the 360 on your behalf. You and your colleagues take part as raters and ratees.

## Do raters need a Compass account?

No. Raters complete their assessment through a secure link in their invitation email and do not need a Compass account. Ratees (the people being assessed) receive their reports by email.

## Can one person rate more than one ratee?

Yes. A person can be asked to rate several ratees. Each assessment is separate, and you receive one invitation email per ratee.

## Who can see an individual rater's responses?

No one. Feedback is always combined by rater group, and reports never attribute a score or comment to a named individual.

## Where do I plan my development after seeing my results?

The report PDF includes a manual **Individual Development Plan (IDP)** template. Use it to turn your strengths and development areas into goals. The IDP is your own development plan and is separate from Compass Action Planning.

## What is an "administration"?

An administration is one full 360 for one leader. If five leaders are assessed, that is five administrations.

## What languages are available?

360 Feedback is available in English.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.talentmap.com/knowledge-base/360-feedback/360-feedback-faq.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
