Providers may report up to three goals for the upcoming year and are asked to report on progress made toward the prior year’s goals. Annual goals are reported in May of the academic year listed.

Goal #2 Improve our mentor training and feedback for candidates. (See above re: video)
Goal #3 Improved speed and accuracy in filing SAR.

Annual Goals - 2016
