Working on personal goals is an important part of the Learned platform. An important application to goals is the ability to plan new goals for the coming period and to evaluate them accordingly. Since many organisations work with goals per year or per quarter, it is possible to link goals in Learned to a goal cycle.

Where can I find the goal cycles?

The Admins of the organisation are responsible for creating and maintaining the goal cycles/timeframes. A goal cycle/timeframe is a term to which it is possible to link goals. In other words: within that specific time frame, employee is working on this goal. To create Goal cycles, go to the Goals page. Click on Settings to view and create the goal cycles.

Creating and editing Goal Cycles

Learned has put some standard goal cycles in the system so that you can get started right away. If your organisation works with goals in a period other than, for example, a year or quarter, it is possible to edit the standard goal cycles with the 3 dots on the right of the cycle.

In addition, it is possible to set up your own goal cycles. Give the goal cycle a clear name that indicates what kind of term it is and then set the term.

If you want to send additional notifications to remind the employee to update progress on goals, you can also set that up here.
