A brief description of how multiple stakeholder groups were involved in developing the plan:
Richland's strategic plan is evaluated and updated annually. Each year, stakeholder groups review current and past performance on each key performance indicator (KPI) and measure to set performance targets for the next one, three, and five years. This process involves input from the college's three main councils: academic, student development, and business services. Stakeholder groups, including faculty, staff, and students, are represented on each of these councils.
