Set a goal

A goal is one thing a player is working on, with a target and a date, visible to them in their portal.

Steps

Open the player and press Goals book, or open Goal books from the Plan group and pick a player.
Press New goal.
Fill in the Goal, pick a Category, set a Deadline and, if it is a rating goal, a Target rating.
Choose Start now or Start later.
Press Add goal.

A player can have three active goals at once. At the cap, a new goal is kept as Planned rather than thrown away, and the page tells you.
Start later files the goal as planned. Start it from the row menu with Start now whenever you are ready.
The goal books index shows every player with their active goal count and nearest deadline.
Players and parents see planned, active and completed goals. Archived goals are your filing decision and are shown to nobody.
The fastest way to a good goal is Focus areas on the assessments page, which seeds one from the five weakest skills.
