Planning Practices of Administrators in Continuing Higher Education

Continuing education administrators in colleges and universities have indicated a growing awareness of the need for effective planning. As the topic of planning has gained prominence, so have discussions of strategic planning. It is frequently presented to continuing higher education administrators as a means of defining organizational mission and goals and achieving planned development. However, many strategic planning models involve the use of a highly structured, formal planning process. Little has been known about whether these models provide a realistic decision-making tool for continuing higher education administrators.
