2025 - 2031 Strategic Planning in Process

Timeline

As we close the chapter on our 2019-2025 Strategic Plan, we eagerly anticipate the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead with the forthcoming 2025-2031 Strategic Plan. With a fresh leadership administration and innovative visions, we are poised to shape the future of STC.

We are actively engaging in understanding the needs of the community we serve and we recognize the importance of external perspectives. The process of reviewing a detailed Environmental Scan began in Fall 2023 and will provide insights into the evolving landscape, and the Program Gap Analysis will help identify areas where we can enhance our educational offerings. A comprehensive SWOT analysis will guide our understanding of internal strengths and weaknesses, as well as external opportunities and threats.

An external consultant will join us in this phase to provide valuable insights. Together, we will collaboratively shape our new Vision, Mission, and Core Values, laying the foundation for the strategic direction of STC. We will also prioritize key Strategic Directions that align with our commitment to serving the community. Building on the insights gained, we will embark on drafting the 2025-2031 Strategic Plan. Stakeholder engagement is paramount in this process. We will seek feedback and revisions from various stakeholders to ensure inclusivity and diversity of perspectives. The finalized draft will be presented to the Board of Trustees for consideration.

The culmination of our efforts will be in Spring 2025 when the Board of Trustees approves the finalized Strategic Plan. The plan will then be made public, reflecting our collective commitment to the future of STC. As we navigate this strategic planning journey, we encourage all stakeholders, including students, faculty, staff, and community members, to actively participate in the process. Your input is invaluable in shaping the future of South Texas College.

Regular updates will be provided on this webpage, detailing progress, milestones, and opportunities for engagement. We are excited about the collaborative efforts that will define the future of STC.
