The role the Oklahoma state system of higher education plays in meeting the state's workforce development goals has never been more vital. Public colleges and universities educate the state's teachers, nurses, doctors, and engineers. Graduates drive innovation, build companies, enrich communities, and strengthen the state's workforce in an increasingly knowledge-based, global economy. To address the state's workforce challenge, the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education (State Regents) developed this Strategic Plan to guide the state system of higher education through 2030. The plan is anchored by four fundamental goals: (1) Produce workforce-ready graduates; (2) Grow the student pipeline; (3) Focus on student success; and (4) Improve system efficiency and effectiveness. This bold Strategic Plan provides a clear framework for Oklahoma's state system of higher education, encourages alignment around key statewide goals, and demonstrates the commitment to translate student success into the workforce. Developing a well-educated workforce will increase Oklahomans' salaries, create economic diversity, and ensure the state's future prosperity.
