Smart targets

SMART stands for:

• S - Specific - The target must say exactly what needs to be learned or done
• M - Measurable- It must say exactly how this can be measured
• A - Achievable - The target must not be too hard or too large, better to have several small targets leading to a larger goal.
• R - Realistic - It must be possible to get access to any training, books or help needed to meet the target.
• T - Timed - There should be a set time limit for achieving the target.
