The Action Plan will be constructed by a Project Team, which is guided by a Strategic Advisory Team.
The Project team will review trends and factors that will influence UCF in the next 10 years, as well as strengths, opportunities, issues and challenges. It will also review the current status of UCF programs, activities, resources, and scientific research. Contributing to this assessment will be key stakeholder interviews, guidance from the Strategic Advisory Team and diverse methods of engaging the UCF community of practice. The Project Team will synthesize all of these inputs to identify specific UCF needs and gaps and develop draft goals and actions for the next ten years. These draft goals and actions will be vetted through community engagement as well as guidance from the Strategic Advisory Team, and will be refined into the final Ten-Year Action Plan.
