The changing nature of higher education demands a strategic development process that is proactive, inclusive, and collaborative. The strategy development process relies on a broad collection of research and stakeholder data. It also analyzes higher education trends in the context of an individual school’s performance, mission statement, and aspirations.
With this kind of insight, institutions at any level can develop a long-term strategic plan that is sustainable over time yet flexible enough to adapt to internal and external challenges and trends. Take a look at how the process comes together.
Institutions have to address dynamic trends in higher education, including financial, technology, and competitive pressures. The Higher Education Strategy Development Process helps schools do this by collecting stakeholder input and measuring performance across dimensions such as academic excellence, financial insights, brand or reputation, access, and economic impact.
