An Introduction to a Strategic Planning Process - Defining the Goals and Metrics for HEEAP 2.0 Summary of May 31, 2012 Workshop Terminology I Use • To gain consensus: What Long Term Goal Near Term Program How Strategy Action Required Initial Set of Six (6) Goals Extracted from components found in HEEAP 2.0 proposal Goal 1: Leadership Development • Goal: – Training leaders in modern and innovative institutional models that facilitate policy changes to meet requirements of national economic development and international integration by 2018 • Metrics: – Number of Rectors / Vice Rectors / Deans trained = 100% (80 – 100 total trained) – At least 25 “large” international projects funded related to leadership advancement – Many “large” domestic projects funded Goal 2: Faculty Development • Goal: – For universities, training faculty in active teaching methodology, curriculum development, and English skills reaching regional standardization (e.g AUN, …) or ABET/CDIO compliance creating a research capacity – For vocational colleges, the same faculty development but with the focus on creating occupational skills • Metrics: – Up to 3000 faculty in universities and vocational colleges will be trained by HEEAP 2.0 – 80% of lecturers use active teaching methods – Average IELTS score of 5.0 (or equivalent TOEFL scores) for all 1400 faculty at the universities – 80% of Engineering Curriculum achieves ABET / CDIO compliance Goal 3: Curriculum, Labs and Infrastructure • Goal: – Establishing curriculum re-design and upgrading the infrastructure in cooperation with industry in order to improve the training quality that meets the demands of the high quality labor force • Metrics: – 100% of curriculum is re-designed for HEEAP schools – 20% of HEEAP school budget comes from industry – 100% of courses equipped with modern equipment Goal 4: Distance Education • Goal: – Facilitate the access of large numbers of students and solve the large class issue by offering Distance Education supporting life long learning while achieving scale economies • Metrics: – At least one distributed education media-based networked classroom in each university by 2014 – Offer distributed, on-line asynchronous course offerings at the universities and vocational colleges within HEEAP 2.0 by 2018 – Scalable on-line course design to support 10% of courses – E-learning system access across 80% of Vietnam – 100% of lecturers and students at universities trained to use system Goal 5: Diversity and Instructional Expert Development • Goal: – Increase the role and participation of women in technical and engineering fields • Metrics: – Achieve 10% female student population – Achieve 5% female faculty population by 2018 – Prepare females for university and vocational college leadership positions Goal 6: English • Goal: – To be regionally and globally competitive by improving the English proficiency of students and faculties in Engineering and Applied Technologies • Metrics: – For universities and vocational schools in HEEAP 2.0, by 2018 we will have the following English certificates: • % of students at universities we will have a TOEFL score of 500 • % of students at vocational colleges we have a TOEIC score of 350-400 – % of all Engineering and Applied Technology training programs will be conducted in English – number of English-speaking exchange students and faculty Potentially Compressed Set of Goals Recognition that must strategically execute successfully for HEEAP 2.0 to be deemed a success 10 The Strategic Magic Number With this strategic planning structure Number of Goals Goals Achieved With Excellence Goal Strategy Program Task 2–3 4–10 11–20 2–3 1–2 11 Goal Expanded: Leadership Development • Goal: – – – • Training leaders in modern and innovative institutional models that facilitate policy changes to meet requirements of national economic development and international integration by 2018 Increase the role and participation of women in technical and engineering fields To be regionally and globally competitive by improving the English proficiency of students and faculties in Engineering and Applied Technologies Metrics: – –

projects funded Achieve 10% female student population and achieve 5% female faculty population by 2018 Prepare females for university and vocational college leadership positions For universities and vocational schools in HEEAP 2.0, by 2018 we will have the following English certificates: • % of students at universities we will have a TOEFL score of 500 • % of students at vocational colleges we have a TOEIC score of 350-400 % of all Engineering and Applied Technology training programs will be conducted in English number of English-speaking exchange students and faculty 12 Goal Expanded:
