  4. Promote the value of CVTC

For each area in your five-year plan, consider the following:

  1. Where are we now?
  2. According to our stakeholders (advisory committee, sending schools, industry standards), where do we need to be?

  4. How do we bridge the gaps?

Your strategic plan should be considered a work in progress and revised as necessary.
