"Too often conducted on, by, and for the main campus, strategic planning can be a murky, disorienting, and disillusioning process for the leaders of branch campuses and off-campus centers. Beginning with how to get broad institutional buy-in and continuing through evaluation and close-out, this toolkit offers a clear, practical, and inclusive pathway to success."

-Dr. Dennis Huffman, Branch Campus Leader, Retired

“The toolkit is extremely user-friendly and straightforward.  In addition to it being useful for campus administrators, I would use this in my graduate-level Assessment course to help train the next generation of professionals.”

-Dr. James McCaslin, Branch Campus Leader

“The toolkit is comprehensive to help branch campuses begin the strategic development process and provides great question and steps to think about in an easy to follow format.”

-Dr. Rosa Smith, Branch Campus Leader

“Although I am not a branch campus leader, this toolkit provided me with awareness and resources of what my role can be within the strategic planning and implementation process. This is crucial in letting others know what is expected of them. I believe this will greatly benefit branch campus leaders, especially those who need to establish buy-in. I like the fact that the toolkit is ground up and does not assume broad support already exists.”

-Dr. William Schaffer, Branch Campus Administrator
