30. How the Budget Works

31. Biennial Budget Cycle-Request to the Legislature The new request reconfirms our commitment to our 2008-2015 strategic outcomes, specifically focusing on: • The Hawai’i Graduation Initiative proposes to increase the number of college graduates by focusing on access, affordability, and workforce development. • Innovation, Technology Transfer and Commercialization supports development of a billion dollar-plus industry of research spin off. • Stewardship of Facilities remains a constant priority to renew our education infrastructure and encompasses projects to further advance the growth of Hawai‘i’s research industry. • Allocation comes to the UHCC and then is dispersed to individual colleges and is part of our overall funding.

32. Budgeting within KCC • Allocation comes to the UHCC and then is dispersed to individual colleges and is part of our overall funding. • Through the Annual Program Review Process, KCC identifies what resources are needed • Resource needs are met through reallocation, legislative funding, tuition and special funds, grant funding or donations • Revival of KCC Innovation Funding

33. Cycle of Planning and Assessment Leading to Institutional Effectiveness • Courses • Programs/Units • Institutional Learning Outcomes • Goals/Priorities

Planning Timeline for Institutional Effectiveness • Early Fall—Review/Set priorities/objectives for the year—College Council and Sept College Conversation • Fall– Comprehensive and Annual Program Reviews due by Oct 31 • Winter—Present data, action plans and resource requests • Early Spring—Resource requests prioritized and decisions made • We also regularly assess the effectiveness of our processes

35. Strategic Planning Process • Annually in September we revisit and revise, if necessary, our priorities within the current goals. • Every five to seven years, we undergo a thorough strategic planning process that includes both internal and external perspectives. • Our process is in step with UHCC and UH. • Our process will begin Spring 2014.

Adult Learners Adult learners have diverse needs. How do we attract adults? How do we serve adults? How do we count adults? Native Hawaiians What more should we do to be a model indigenous serving institution? Other Underserved Populations Who else is underserved – Filipino, Pacific Islander, Others? Can we learn from Achieving the Dream to reach these populations? UHCC Strategic Plan Goal A Educational Effectiveness & Student Success FS = Faculty Senate S = Student Senate
