The plan emphasizes a 40-40-20 model of academic offerings (40% on-campus, 40% online, 20% on-demand), the development of micro-credentials, and strategic acquisitions to expand its reach. Key outcomes include increasing enrollment to 12,000 students, forming 100 new partnerships, achieving a 66% top-of-mind brand awareness, and generating $165 million in revenue by Fall 2026.
