Action Plan Template

Objective:

 

  • Following this template, the learner will be able to organise priorities, identify goals (actions to achieve them, and constraints to achieving them), identify the help and support available to them, and set deadlines.

Overview:

This simple template allows learners to organise and prioritise the actions required to achieve a given goal; to identify all requirements to achieve each action; all constraints to achieving each action; to organise the help and support which relates to each action, and to set deadlines and monitor progress.

This is applicable to learners starting up their own businesses, and equally can support learners with all other projects and endeavours.

Activity:

Learners can complete and use the following basic template;
