I'm confused Personal development plan

Please can somebody help me get my head around this... I have to list 3 skills or knowledge areas where I think my current practice could be improved... I know what I want to put put finding it hard to break down using SMART.
I would like to put down- maths GCSE course, first aid course, visit another setting.
Can anyone help me break each one up? I'm struggling to word it right :-(
Many thanks

Hi, SMART targets help you plan, break-down and organise what you want to do and achieve. Specific – target a specific area for improvement. They must be easy to understand and say exactly what you want to happen.
Measurable – success can be measured by checking back carefully against the instruction that have been given.
Achievable - the targets can be reached with reasonable effort in the time you are allowed.
Relevant – the targets must be appropriate, building on previous strengths and skills..
Time-related – the targets have clearly set deadlines and are reviewed frequently.

Personal development using SMART objectives

So for example

S:
Visit another setting
M: what are the benefits of you visiting another setting?
A: can the visit and the benefits be achieved by the end of the month, year, week? ie. local visit for next Thursday day out with forest school / visit to a Swedish kindergarten next month to spend a week learning about gender neutrality.
R: what is your current role & area of responsibility in the setting, and how will that support you when you visit?
T: set some dates that ensure the intention to visit happens by linking it to a timeline and deadline.
