ISU Extension
Futuring Committee:
Action Plan 2 Implementation Report
New Programs and
Services
Plan Leader:
JaneAnn Stout
Long-Term
Goal
All new programs
will be knowledge-based by January 1, 2006. They
will focus on economic and community development, leadership development,
entrepreneurial education, and/or quality of life. Each unit will
work to increase client participation by 5% annually for three years
using FY04 as the base, continuing through June 30, 2007.
Short-Term
Goals
1. Within
each program area, 10% of the current base-programming budget will
be allocated to new program thrusts related to emerging issues by
July 1, 2005.
2. All
ISU Extension programs and services funded through base funds will
be research based and have a theoretical component or have been scientifically
tested and have documented outcomes related to their impact
for targeted audiences (where this does not already occur) by January
1, 2006.
3. New
programs will have a marketing component incorporated in them by
July 1, 2005 that will help citizens and stakeholders understand
the connection ISU Extension makes through programming for the larger good
of society.
4. Administrative,
faculty, county directors and field specialist performance
expectations will address goals for meeting new program thrusts and
related new revenue allocations starting with Spring 2006 performance
evaluations. Overall
outcomes related to revenue will result in 5% annual increase
in the total ISU Extension budget.
