Crowder College's Strategic Plan (2023-2026) outlines four priority areas: Programs & Students, Crowder Culture, Finance & Facilities, and Community. The plan aims to expand training in high-demand fields, integrate professional skills training, address barriers to student success, and enhance student engagement. For Crowder Culture, the plan focuses on servant leadership, improving internal systems and communication, and strengthening teamwork. Finance & Facilities priorities include developing an infrastructure plan, increasing credit hours, creating competitive pay structures, and securing grant funding. Community engagement will be strengthened through increased involvement in advisory committees and college events. Specific goals include increasing credit hours by 7% by 2026, developing competitive pay structures, and expanding training opportunities to meet regional workforce needs. The plan details numerous action items across these priority areas for each year (2023-2024, 2024-2025, and 2025-2026), outlining specific initiatives to achieve the stated goals.
