EXECUTIVE SUMMARY HISTORY AND BACKGROUND Laredo College is Laredo’s oldest and largest institution of higher education, established in 1947 on the site of historic Fort McIntosh to prepare returning World War II soldiers for America’s new workforce. Today, Laredo College is a two- campus district serving the diverse needs of a growing community. The two campuses serve over 16,000 students each year through a variety of affordable academic programs, career-technical programs, non-credit continuing education courses, specialized training, and adult education courses. Both campuses serve a three-county area composed of Webb, Jim Hogg, and Zapata counties. As the only 2-year public institution within a 150-mile radius of Laredo, Laredo College is a learner-centered institution that transforms students’ lives through educational programs and services that fulfill the dynamic needs of its local, regional, national, and global community. The College offers more than 120 certificate and degree programs, from one-semester certificates leading to immediate employment to two-year associate’s degrees. Students from Laredo College are well prepared to transfer to a four-year institution to continue their education and fulfill their educational and career goals. The College continually improves its educational programs, administrative support services, student support services, and community/public services to meet the needs of its predominantly Hispanic students, many of whom are academically and economically disadvantaged. STRATEGIC PLANNING DEVELOPMENT PROCESS The development of the College strategic plan consisted of multiple components, including an environmental scan, data review, and input from both internal and external stakeholders. ENVIRONMENTAL SCAN An environmental study was conducted by Economic Modeling Specialists International (EMSI). This study examined data from the region and the state, analyzed how this data applied to Laredo College, and provided a perspective on demographics, economic development, and workforce needs. DATA REVIEW A number of data elements were reviewed in preparation for the strategic planning discussions, including student demographics, enrollment, retention, completion, sources of revenue, and expenses by category. Documents reflecting these data elements formed the basis for discussion at all planning meetings and workshops. Additionally, elements of the data review included assimilation of the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board (THECB) 60x30 plan which has identified four essential goals for the future prosperity of Texas. The focus of these goals align with the vision and mission of Laredo College: (1) supporting a strong economic future for the state; (2) helping students complete a degree from an institution of higher education; (3) graduate students with marketable skills; and (4) help students graduate with manageable debt. Actions and targets associated with these goals have been incorporated into the College strategic Plan. STAKEHOLDER INPUT A comprehensive array of meetings and workshops were conducted to solicit input from internal and external stakeholders. Multiple meetings with College leadership, faculty, staff, students, and community members were conducted from February through September 2018: February 5, 2018 – President’s Management Team March 20, 2018 – External Community Workshop (Mr. Brad Hunt, Consultant) March 28, 2018 – College LeadershipTeam April 6, 2018 – Internal Community Workshop (Mr. Brad Hunt, Consultant) April 26, 2018 – StudentPresentation May 3, 2018 – Classified StaffOrganization May 18, 2018 – LBJ High School Early College and Dual Enrolled Students September 18, 2018 – Leadership Meeting September 25, 2018 – President’s ManagementTeam September 27, 2018 – Board of Trustees Meeting External stakeholder input included leaders from industry, workforce, community organizations, and economic development partners, as well as representation from local and regional school districts.
