Guidelines for Preparing Objectives

1. State objectives in measurable terms.  Avoid generalities.
2. Define each objective in terms of a single result.
3. Select a language which can communicate to all interested parties - not to just a limited technical group.
4. Identify new learning experiences, which go beyond those you have had. (Where am I?  What will I be able to do at the end of the work period that I cannot do now?)
5. Know what goals your employer is seeking to accomplish so that your objectives can coincide.
