OCTC HOSTING STOP ON OUT OF THE BOX TOUR

Kentucky Community and Technical College System (KCTCS) President Jay Box will visit Owensboro Community and Technical College (OCTC) on April 9, 2015 as part of his statewide listening tour, seeking input for the KCTCS 2016-22 strategic plan.

Throughout March and April, Box will gather feedback on the future of KCTCS colleges and the system as a whole from students, faculty, staff and community partners. College communities will consider the question What does your community/region need for the college to be by 2022?

The listening tour will allow the systems second president to continue the conversation face-to-face and engage a broader audience.

Because our Strategic Plan will be what drives our entire institution for the next six years, it is vitally important that it is designed through a process that includes input from not just the colleges of KCTCS, but also the entire state that we serve, said Box. OCTC interim President, Dr. Larry Durrence commented, This is a great opportunity for the community to provide guidance to the local college, as well as the system and help for the plan for the future.
