The KVCC2027 strategic plan focuses on improving student outcomes, ensuring program quality, enhancing campus community, and contributing to workforce development. Key initiatives include creating an advising center, promoting diversity and inclusion, assessing student learning, developing a strategic enrollment management plan, creating a facilities master plan, implementing a staff development plan, expanding workforce training opportunities, and establishing pathways from non-credit training to continued learning. The plan aims to increase retention and graduation rates, maintain program integrity, foster a supportive campus environment, and meet regional employment needs.

The KVCC2020 Strategic Plan focuses on four strategic goals: expanding enrollment by the 2020-2021 academic year; achieving regional recognition for quality in post-secondary education and professional training; ensuring effective and efficient institutional operations; and contributing to the economic and social development of the mid-Maine community. The plan outlines objectives and measures for each goal, addressing areas such as student retention, program assessment, employee development, technology infrastructure, community engagement, and business and industry partnerships. Targeted outcomes include increased FTE enrollment, improved student persistence and transfer rates, maintenance of regional accreditation, enhanced program quality, effective institutional operations, and strengthened community engagement. The plan's implementation involves four phases: review and assessment, visioning, implementation and action planning, and ongoing monitoring and evaluation.

The strategic plan focuses on KVCC's contribution to economic and community development through lifelong learning. Key goals include increasing registrations for workforce development training, ensuring programs meet regional and state employment needs, demonstrating excellence in workforce programming, and understanding social capital in the mid-Maine region. Objectives involve expanding training opportunities, establishing pathways from non-credit to credit programming, developing tools for civic engagement, and implementing continuous quality improvement processes.
