I plan to complete 180 hours of work experience in a hotel or restaurant by 2020 and maintain 80% or better in my CTE courses.
I will also complete my Keytrain training online and Workkeys assessment to earn my National Career Readiness Certificate by June 2020.
A. 2. Long-term goal (after graduation):
Use this template:
I will enroll in (college/university on or off island) in fall, 2020, and I plan to major in ______. I plan to graduate with my (choose - associate's or bachelor's degree) in June, (year). I may transfer off island to go to another college to pursue further education (or to work). I may work part-time in the hospitality industry while I attend college. My long-term career goal is to be ___________. (You can add more to your long-term goals).
Goals must be Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic and Time-bound (SMART):
Specific = What, Why, Who, When,and How. Make sure each of your goals are clearly stated and defined. If you don't know where you want to go, any road will take you there. Try to combine as many of your goals together as possible so that you are able to accomplish more in less time.
Measurable = If you can't measure your goal, you can't mange it. Break your goal down into bite size tasks and create checkpoints to monitor your progress and create positive momentum. Stay flexible with your goals and don't be concerned if you need to make some changes to your goals as you advance toward their
accomplishment.
Achievable = Be mindful not to set too large a goal or too short a time frame. Your goals should stretch your capability, but at the same time they need to be "mentally
attainable" so you don't lose interest.
Realistic = Do you have the time and resources to achieve your goals?
Time-bound = Set meaningful deadlines to give your goals a sense of urgency. Without meaningful deadlines, you run the risk of having your goals fade away into the mist of procrastination.

I may transfer off island to go to another college to pursue further education (or to work). I may work part-time in the hospitality industry while I attend college. My long-term career goal is to be ___________. (You can add more to your long-term goals).
Goals must be Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic and Time-bound (SMART):
Specific = What, Why, Who, When,and How. Make sure each of your goals are clearly stated and defined. If you don't know where you want to go, any road will take you there. Try to combine as many of your goals together as possible so that you are able to accomplish more in less time.
Measurable = If you can't measure your goal, you can't mange it. Break your goal down into bite size tasks and create checkpoints to monitor your progress and create positive momentum. Stay flexible with your goals and don't be concerned if you need to make some changes to your goals as you advance toward their
accomplishment.
Achievable = Be mindful not to set too large a goal or too short a time frame. Your goals should stretch your capability, but at the same time they need to be "mentally
attainable" so you don't lose interest.
Realistic = Do you have the time and resources to achieve your goals?
Time-bound = Set meaningful deadlines to give your goals a sense of urgency. Without meaningful deadlines, you run the risk of having your goals fade away into the mist of procrastination.
