Personal and Professional Goals
I am a student of master of nursing and a specialist adult gerontology practitioner. My
personal goal is to gather knowledge from the lecturers and the fellow students in order to
develop my professional skills and make me able to provide service to my future clients in an
effective manner that could satisfy them. My professional goal is to become a nurse practitioner
committed to social change. My personal and professional goals are influenced by the mission
and the vision of the Walden University and the school of nursing. They provide academically
rigorous and relevant contents to the students in order to develop their critical thinking and
enhance the ability of the student to implement evidenced-based nursing practice in order to
address vigorous challenges in the society and transform communities. The mission and vision of
the Walden University has helped ne to improve my personal view regarding the social change.
It was difficult for me to understand the way of addressing the social challenges but the effort of
the Walden University has helped me to identify the way of resolving social challenges easily
(Social Change Working Group, 2016). I believe that acquiring adequate knowledge would help
me to improve the quality of my service to the human lifespan and meet the requirements of the
clients in the local and global range (Yob et al., 2016).
