Annual Report on the Strategic Plan
This is the third in a series of four reports on the goals in the strategic plan.
This report focuses on Goal 3: Invest in Each Other.
A volunteer team of faculty, staff and administrators produced the 2010 report.
![Page 4: StrategicPlanGoalReports](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042903/568c4ae21a28ab49169a03bc/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Goal 3: Invest in Each Other
Establish operational systems based on collaboration and deep stewardship of our work.
Demonstrate support for employee professional development, career growth, and healthy living.
![Page 5: StrategicPlanGoalReports](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042903/568c4ae21a28ab49169a03bc/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Objective 3.1 – Collaboration
Strengthen Valencia’s collaborative culture through: learning and leadership development
opportunities in the effective use of collaborative approaches, and
through regular review and evolution of our shared governance system.
Why are “collaboration” and “shared governance” important to us?
![Page 6: StrategicPlanGoalReports](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042903/568c4ae21a28ab49169a03bc/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Collaboration
Valencia’s Mission
Valencia provides opportunities for academic, technical, and lifelong learning in a collaborative culture dedicated to inquiry, results, and excellence.
![Page 7: StrategicPlanGoalReports](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042903/568c4ae21a28ab49169a03bc/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Shared Governance
As practiced at Valencia, shared governance is: a set of processes and procedures through
which college faculty, staff, and administrators collaborate in making significant decisions about the College's strategic direction, goals, and related implementation plans.
![Page 8: StrategicPlanGoalReports](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042903/568c4ae21a28ab49169a03bc/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Progress toward Objective 3.1 –Collaboration
Valencia provides opportunities for professional development in the use of collaborative tools and approaches.
A review of our shared governance system is currently underway.
![Page 9: StrategicPlanGoalReports](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042903/568c4ae21a28ab49169a03bc/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Example of a Collaborative Effort
Our annual “Big Meeting” is a meansof gathering a large, representativegroup of people from across the collegeto review progress toward our strategic goals.
![Page 10: StrategicPlanGoalReports](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042903/568c4ae21a28ab49169a03bc/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Valencia’s Governance System
Valencia’s governance system includes four governing councils: Faculty Council College Learning Council College Operations Council College Planning Council
These councils make policy recommendations to the President, and through him, to the Trustees.
Example: Faculty Compensation System.
![Page 11: StrategicPlanGoalReports](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042903/568c4ae21a28ab49169a03bc/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The role of communication
Shared governance and collaboration require effective communication.
A new system of internal communication is being developed to address the needs of full- and part-time employees, starting with new employee orientation and extending throughout employment.
The system will ensure that employees are aware of decisions being considered by the governing councils.
![Page 12: StrategicPlanGoalReports](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042903/568c4ae21a28ab49169a03bc/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Objective 3.2 – Career Growth
By 2013, Valencia will have a robust system of career growth and planning in which all employees will participate.
Note: This does not include faculty, who have a separate faculty development program.
This system will be introduced this summer, and the level of participation and types of activities will be documented.
![Page 13: StrategicPlanGoalReports](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042903/568c4ae21a28ab49169a03bc/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
3.2 - Career Growth Initiatives
The college designed and put into place in summer 2010 a system of creating annual Professional Development Plans for employees, by which annual goals are set by each employee and their supervisor.
Employee goals include planned professional development to help them remain current and develop their skills and knowledge to carry out their work.
![Page 14: StrategicPlanGoalReports](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042903/568c4ae21a28ab49169a03bc/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Examples of PDP objectives
Cross train with an administrative assistant in an academic area to learn about the duties there and the tasks they perform related to Electronic Personal Action Forms (EPAF) and faculty scheduling.
Create and implement a communication plan for the Performance Development Process.
![Page 15: StrategicPlanGoalReports](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042903/568c4ae21a28ab49169a03bc/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Increase the percentage of those in our college community engaged in self-reported wellness practices.
The Office of Human Resources provides Wellness programming to the college. All employees complete the annual health insurance
enrollment survey, which provides aggregate information to help design Wellness offerings, and to help us monitor group health improvements over time.
The Valencia Wellness Program records participation in on-campus wellness activities each year.
Objective 3.3 – Employee Wellness
![Page 16: StrategicPlanGoalReports](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042903/568c4ae21a28ab49169a03bc/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Employee Wellness Program
Employee wellness activities (such as walking programs, yoga, and exercise classes) are offered on all campuses as part of a comprehensive college wellness plan, designed to meet challenges revealed through our health insurance provider’s data.
Activities and educational programs are designed to help employees meet personal wellness goals.
![Page 17: StrategicPlanGoalReports](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042903/568c4ae21a28ab49169a03bc/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Annual Report on the Strategic Plan
This is the second in a series of four reports on the goals in the strategic plan.
This report focuses on Goal 2: Learning Assured.
A volunteer team of faculty, staff and administrators produced the 2010 report.
![Page 20: StrategicPlanGoalReports](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042903/568c4ae21a28ab49169a03bc/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Goal 2: Learning Assured
Implement optimal learning environments for students.
Integrate individual student effort with the learning process.
Establish learning and learning support systems and techniques designed to reduce achievement gaps among groups of learners from diverse backgrounds.
![Page 21: StrategicPlanGoalReports](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042903/568c4ae21a28ab49169a03bc/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Objective 2.1 – Learning Outcomes
Develop, align, and review program learning outcomes to assure a cohesive curricular and co-curricular experience that enhances student learning.
![Page 22: StrategicPlanGoalReports](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042903/568c4ae21a28ab49169a03bc/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Objective 2.1 –Learning Outcomes
Progress is measured in terms of the extent to which there are documented learning outcomes that support curricular alignment and student success.
The aim is for all programs to have and follow a continuous improvement process that includes learning outcomes assessed on an on-going basis.
![Page 23: StrategicPlanGoalReports](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042903/568c4ae21a28ab49169a03bc/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Learning Outcomes Initiatives
Examples of initiatives aimed at achieving objective 2.1: Curriculum Mapping within the five General Education
discipline areas and within the co-curricular student experience.
Development and mapping of the General Education Student Learning Outcomes: Cultural and Historical Understanding, Quantitative and Scientific Reasoning, Communication Skills, Ethical Responsibility, Information Literacy, and Critical Thinking.
Development of outcomes for the new Baccalaureate degree programs.
![Page 24: StrategicPlanGoalReports](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042903/568c4ae21a28ab49169a03bc/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Example of a Learning Outcome
Outcome: Demonstrate College-level writing.
A rubric developed by faculty establishes indicators of student achievement at four levels:
- Beginning - Developing- Competent- Accomplished
![Page 25: StrategicPlanGoalReports](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042903/568c4ae21a28ab49169a03bc/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Example of a Learning Outcome
Outcome: Demonstrate College-level writing.
The rubric presents four indicators of writing at each level:
- Meaning and Development - Organization- Language- Conventions
![Page 26: StrategicPlanGoalReports](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042903/568c4ae21a28ab49169a03bc/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
For example, to be assessed as “Competent” in the area of Meaning and Development:
The student will demonstrate that he or she can develop a point of view and demonstrate competent critical thinking.
There will be enough supporting detail to accomplish the purpose of the student’s paper.

Creation of the Strategic Plan
Following college-wide collaborative work and consultation with the community, the College created the 2008-13 strategic plan.
The Trustees approved the plan in June 2008.
It can be found at this site:http://valenciacc.edu/strategicplan/documents/StratPlanBOOKMARKED_000.pdf
![Page 51: StrategicPlanGoalReports](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042903/568c4ae21a28ab49169a03bc/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Gauging Progress
Annually, the College Planning Council convenes volunteer goal teams: to document progress toward each
goal; to consider changes that may impact
the plan’s content or execution; and to recommend changes, if indicated.
![Page 52: StrategicPlanGoalReports](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042903/568c4ae21a28ab49169a03bc/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Baseline Data
The 2009-10 teams established the baseline data against which the 2010-11 teams are currently gauging progress.
Baseline data for each objective can be accessed on the Strategic Planning web site: http://www.valenciacc.edu/strategicplan/strategicplanning2010-11.cfm
We will share a few of the baseline data with you today.
![Page 53: StrategicPlanGoalReports](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042903/568c4ae21a28ab49169a03bc/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Vision
The strategic goals are aimed at helping us to achieve our vision:
Valencia is a premier learning college that transforms lives, strengthens community, and inspires individuals to excellence.
![Page 54: StrategicPlanGoalReports](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042903/568c4ae21a28ab49169a03bc/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
Mission
And, to meet our mission:
Valencia provides opportunities for academic, technical, and life-long learning in a collaborative culture dedicated to inquiry, results, and excellence.
![Page 55: StrategicPlanGoalReports](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042903/568c4ae21a28ab49169a03bc/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Values

Big, Hairy, Audacious Goals
Our plan contains six “Big, Hairy, Audacious Goals,” that have a “gulp factor:”
1. Every student develops high aspirations and the tools to achieve them.
2. Each student is treated as a person to be respected, challenged and served, and not as a problem to be solved.
![Page 57: StrategicPlanGoalReports](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042903/568c4ae21a28ab49169a03bc/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
Big, Hairy, Audacious Goals
3. Valencia’s students can begin to pursue any higher educational goal by starting at Valencia.
4. Valencia creates learning experiences designed to support each student’s needs and aspirations.
![Page 58: StrategicPlanGoalReports](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042903/568c4ae21a28ab49169a03bc/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
Big, Hairy, Audacious Goals
5. Valencia’s graduating class demographic characteristics mirror those of the entering class.
6. The level of college-educated adults in Orange and Osceola counties is significantly higher than the national average.
