Service Goals
Service goals help students to plan what they would like to accomplish for your organization over the course of the semester. Once USL student interns have had a chance to familiarize themselves with your organization, service activities, and the population served, they must formulate (in consultation with you) at least three measurable goals. For each goal, they will list objectives/strategies that they will implement.
This form will undergo the same review process as the Internship Confirmation Form (ICF) and is accessed in the same way:
Once the student intern submits the Service Goals Form:
First, their instructor will review the form.
Upon approval, the supervisor receives an email notice to review the form.

REVIEW the Service Goals Form
3 Service Goals – these should be tasks, projects or activities that will help your organization carry out your mission. (These should not be a student’s personal goals that help them to grow professionally. Personal goals are completed as part of an assignment for the class.)
Objectives - Each goal should have objectives, which are action steps that the student will need to take to accomplish the goal.
Measurable outcomes – Students should identify a measurable outcome to determine if they have accomplished their goal. They should have a tracking mechanism to monitor their progress.
