Strategic Plan

On August 24, 2004, a 34 member planning
committee was charged to look critically at
the Kansas Cooperative Extension Service.
They were asked to focus on one question:
"What will the Kansas Cooperative Service 
need to look like in the future to conduct 
relevant, sustainable, quality educational 
services and programming?"  The com-
mittee was asked to provide a series of 
strategic plan recommendations and sug-
gest actions to implement the plan for each 
of the following four key themes:

• Organizational Structure and Staffing
• Resource Development
• Educational and Information Development
  and Dissemination
• Constituent Development and Marketing

On December 1, 2004, the planning com-
mittee provided the recommendations
on the following pages to fulfill the
extension mission of K-State Research and Extension.
