2018-23 Strategic Plan
Endorsed by COCC Board of Directors on June 13, 2018 Page 1 of 2
Student Success:
Goal Statement:
Provide resources and support to facilitate increased student persistence
and educational goal achievement.
Goal Intention:
Many students who come to COCC leave before reaching their declared
educational goal. COCC will proactively guide students to define goals, and
will provide resources and support to achieve them. This will result in a
measurable improvement in overall persistence and completion.
What will COCC look like when this goal is achieved?
Students create realistic educational goals, academic plans and pathways,
and take the courses they need in an efficient and progressive manner while
accounting for their non-academic challenges. Resources are known and
accessible. The institution tracks students and targets relevant and
appropriate resources. Faculty and staff employ innovative practices to
increase student engagement, access and success. Students who enter
COCC attain or exceed their educational goals.
Initiatives:
SS-1: Enhance development of course and program offerings and delivery
methods.
SS-2: Enhance and promote the resources and tools available to help
students efficiently complete their academic goal.
SS-3: Enhance and promote the resources and support services available
to help students overcome non-academic challenges.
Student Experience:
Goal Statement:
Provide core academic offerings and student support at all campuses and
online.
Goal Intention:
Access to core academic offerings and services is limited and inconsistent.
COCC will provide core academic offerings and student support services in a
coordinated, intentional and predictable way to increase equity in the
academic experience online and at all campuses.
What will COCC look like when this goal is achieved?
Students complete core academic courses at any of COCC’s campuses and
online. Students utilize support resources on all campuses and online.
Students identify as part of the College community.
Initiatives:
SE-1: Develop and implement a comprehensive approach to academic
offerings and student support services on all campuses and online.
SE-2: Increase access to academic programs and courses on all campuses
and online.
SE-3: Promote diversity, inclusiveness and community on all campuses

Community Enrichment:
Goal Statement:
Engage as a collaborative and contributing partner with the community.
Goal Intention:
As Central Oregon has grown, opportunities for leadership and collaboration
in the community have increased. COCC will cultivate new relationships and
strengthen existing connections with workforce, education and other
community partners. We will proactively collaborate to meet current and
future community needs.
What will COCC look like when this goal is achieved?
COCC is recognized throughout the region as a leader and partner in
building a stronger and vibrant community. Organizations and communities
in the region seek our participation and leadership on initiatives that
improve our communities. COCC is a leading provider of workforce training
and higher education in the region. Students are highly sought for
internships and employment after completing their education and training
at COCC.
Initiatives:

with Educational Stakeholders, including PreK-12, universities
(higher education), lifelong learners and business and industry.

educational and training needs of business, industry and workforce.

needs.
Institutional Efficiency:
Goal Statement:
Strengthen systems, policies and procedures to create more proactive,
responsive and effective internal processes.
Goal Intention:
While the College has changed dramatically over the last decade, the
institution’s operational infrastructure has not kept pace. COCC will
examine and improve policies, procedures and systems to make them more
efficient, effective and operationally sustainable to provide a high quality
work and learning environment.
What will COCC look like when this goal is achieved?
Faculty and staff at the College can clearly articulate the decision-making
processes. College information is provided in an accurate and consistent
way across all platforms. Internal and external audiences know how and
where to access information in order to stay informed, accomplish tasks and
actively participate. Employees identify as part of the College community
and contribute to creating an effective, supportive and inclusive learning
and working environment with recognized opportunities for professional
growth and development.
Initiatives:
IE-1: Improve practices and structure related to providing a healthy and
productive workplace.
IE-2: Develop uniform, effective and efficient processes.
IE-3: Define, document and practice clear operational decision-making.
IE-4: Improve information sharing practices and platforms.

Academic Master Plan:
Building on Excellence 2015-2018
Introduction
This inaugural Academic Master Plan (AMP) was initiated in 2014 by Central Oregon Community College’s (COCC) then Vice President for
Instruction, and developed collaboratively at an important juncture in leadership, institutional planning, and enrollment. Record-breaking
enrollment growth from 2007 to 2012 ended as the central Oregon economy recovered. The college expanded instructional offerings at
three campus locations in Redmond, Madras, and Prineville. Oregon State University-Cascades located in Bend announced plans to launch
lower division courses in 2015 as it expands from offering junior and senior classes to a full four-year institution. Important changes
continue at COCC’s top-level administration. A permanent president was named in March 2015, after serving for six months as interim
president and following the decade long tenure of COCC’s fourth president. An interim vice president for instruction (VPI) was named
winter 2015 and is the fifth VPI since 2010 (three permanent and two interim). The College increased the number of instructional deans
from two to three in 2010 and has had seven individuals serving in these roles since that time. Central Oregon Community College
introduced a 2013-18 Strategic Plan and is working to align operational plans and activities with this plan. It is in this context of change
that AMP provides proactive vision and focus for future decisions and activity in instructional matters at Central Oregon Community
College.
Process
This AMP is the first academic planning document that represents the outcome of a regular, iterative, intentional planning process. The
AMP was developed collaboratively, involving faculty, instructional leadership, and staff. The team convened in February 2014 to evaluate
the current educational environment, review other planning models, and discuss priorities for COCC. Participants across campus provided
review of and recommendations for the AMP throughout its development. The process of actively engaging faculty and staff in the
process resulted in an informative, reflective, and thoughtful roadmap that emerged as this initial AMP.

Purpose
The 2015-2018 Academic Master Plan, completed Spring, 2015, identifies instructional priorities designed to enhance teaching and
learning and student success. It is a dynamic document that is both proactive and responsive to the challenges facing COCC in the near
future. The AMP provides a framework for intentional decision-making, strategic planning, and prioritizing of people, resources, and
operations in instruction. It builds upon COCC’s existing strengths and aligns with COCC’s 2013-18 Strategic Plan to effectively fulfill
COCC’s Mission and Vision.
COCC MISSION:

COCC VISION:

COCC’s 2013-2018 Strategic Plan

Learning, and Institutional Sustainability. The AMP goal focuses on fulfillment of the outcomes for each theme.
