Texas State Technical College Strategic Plan 2025-2030
Texas State Technical College's (TSTC) strategic plan focuses on placing more Texans in great-paying jobs. Key initiatives include thriving in a performance-based culture, fortifying appropriation funding sources, growing and modernizing physical and operational infrastructure, and forging ahead with core growth and expansion. Two Wildly Important Goals (WIGs) measure success: increasing the quantity of former students found working and increasing the quality of first-year wages earned by former students. The plan details TSTC's commitment to continuous improvement, technological advancements, and expansion across Texas, including new campuses and facilities. The budget report shows a significant increase in appropriations and tuition revenue, driven by enrollment growth and the returned-value funding formula. The plan also addresses operational changes, including a revised organizational structure and investments in personnel, equipment, and technology.
