Wyoming Community College Commission
With the national spotlight on community colleges, Wyoming is poised to become a leader through its efforts to align the programs of its seven community colleges with defined state interests. As local economies become more globally focused and knowledge-based, community colleges are a critical way for learners to gain access to postsecondary education. This strategic plan has two purposes: it provides a structure for decision making and investment within the community college system, and it offers short- and long-term initiatives intended to improve Wyoming's community college system. The Plan also outlines priorities for the recommendations included here, providing a structure for the Wyoming Community College Commission, the colleges, and their partners to implement recommendations over time, as resources allow. The following are appended: (1) Evaluation Tools; and (2) Interviews and Focus Groups.
Descriptors: Community Colleges, Strategic Planning, Postsecondary Education, Economic Factors, Educational Quality, Educational History, Governance, Institutional Characteristics, Tuition, Fees, Performance, Population Trends, Aging (Individuals), Educational Objectives, Access to Education, Success, Distance Education, Alignment (Education), Education Work Relationship, Partnerships in Education, Cooperation, Educational Resources, Educational Improvement, Program Implementation
