Clone, edit, or delete a calibration session

Calibrations help HR leaders and managers make more fair, objective, and transparent assessments of performance and talent decisions. As you create calibration sessions for a review cycle, you can clone an existing session to copy and modify its settings, rather than creating a new session from scratch. You also have the option to edit or delete created sessions.
