Author Antoine de Saint-Exupéry once wrote, “a goal without a plan is just a wish.” At ��������, we have embraced a very results-driven goal setting culture. When establishing enrollment goals we look not only at total headcount, but at full year equivalent (FYE)—the total number of credits sold divided by 30. Looking at both metrics allows us to establish goals toward serving more students and ensuring a balance between full- and part-time students. Since establishing our five-year plan (2020-2024), our primary goals have been to increase headcount to more than 4,000 (+8.7%), and increase FYE to more than 2,000 (+15.7%). These are optimal numbers for the college given our facilities and program capacity, and after years of hard work and monitoring, these goals are now within our reach.
