Strategic Planning in 2022
Strategic Planning 2022 & beyond has begun. We have entered into the first phase of the process, engaging our stakeholders through a short survey, requesting that they indicate three top priorities that the university should focus on in the immediate future. The information has been collected and is being collated and the themes emerging from the data will be identified and reported.
The second phase will involve an external scanning - a PESTLE analysis of sorts. This will allow us to review the university’s positioning within the national, regional, and international context. Several reports, documents, and future outlooks will be examined to identify pertinent issues for strategic focus. Information from both our external scan and stakeholder input will help form the direction for the university.
We have committed to updating the university community monthly and soliciting feedback along the various phases of the strategic planning process. We look forward to your ongoing input. Thank you for being a part of this interesting journey.
