This Institutional Strategic Master Plan for Guam Community College outlines the institution's strategic direction and goals for the period 2026-2032. It focuses on five core goals: Visionary Leadership and Integrated Governance, Transformative Student Experience, Empowered and Thriving Employees, Sustainable and Smart Campus Ecosystem, and Academic Excellence and Innovation. The plan aims to build upon past achievements, reimagine teaching and learning, and strengthen partnerships to further enhance the college's role as a premier educational institution providing globally recognized educational and workforce development programs for Micronesia.

The board meeting primarily focused on the presidential search, resulting in a unanimous vote for a candidate.
