SMART Goals

Setting goals is an important part of lifelong education and career planning. When FNP (family nurse practitioner students) consider their goals for their future careers, they should consider using the SMART principles, which have been around since the 1980s.  SMART is an acronym that helps guide the formulation of goals that are:

· Specific (simple, sensible, significant).

· Measurable (meaningful, motivating).

· Achievable (agreed, attainable).

· Relevant (reasonable, realistic and resourced, results-based).

· Time bound (time-based, time limited, time/cost limited, timely, time-sensitive).

Utilizing the concepts of S-M-A-R-T goals, in a table or in 250 words, please describe two to three short-term and one or two long-term professional SMART goals for after graduation. Make sure your goals are specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and time-framed.
