Assignment Instructions and Requirements

IMPORTANT NOTE: NOT a professional or career goal, and not a personal wellness, affirmation, or life goal (Examples of unacceptable goals for this assignment: get my master’s degree, get a job, get married, lose 15 pounds, stop smoking, take a vacation, etc. etc. etc.)

3. In the IDP form write your personal development goal using the SMART format (if you don’t recall or don’t know what the SMART format is then Google it), then list the barriers, if any, that maybe preventing you from being able to start to working on your goal today.

4. Complete the IDP form by identifying the specific objectives/measureable milestones you will use to reach your goal, the specific action you will take to complete each objective, how you will measure your progress and know when you have been successful, and your time line (start date and deadline).

5. That’s it – nothing else – submit your IDP before the stated due date and time. Late submissions will receive no credit
