Strategic Plan

The Helping Ravens Soar: Students and Enrolment Strategic Plan 2021-2026 represents the aspirations, values and goals of the Students and Enrolment division over five years. Helping Ravens Soar has been designed as a companion to the Carleton University Strategic Integrated Plan (SIP), situating our division’s work within the larger framework of Carleton’s aspirations.

Strategic Plan Objectives

While the directions, themes and goals of our Strategic Plan will remain consistent over the life of the strategy, our objectives may evolve over time. In this way, our long-term strategic goals and directions remain fixed, but the ways in which we operationalize those goals can continue to develop. This approach allows our division to be nimble, adapting to changing circumstances, demographics or innovations as they arise. The operational elements of this plan are published and maintained annually on this website.

Supporting Plans

The Students and Enrolment division has two key supporting plans to help guide and coordinate its work. These plans are available on our internal website.

Information Technology Plan

The division has a three-year IT plan, guided by the university’s digital strategy, that focuses on enhancing the student experience and improving efficiency through targeted digital initiatives and better coordination.

Knowledge Management Plan

Managing the division’s knowledge involves fostering a culture of sharing and collaboration, emphasizing knowledge creation through conversations and interactions rather than relying on a single shared repository.

Annual Reports

To support continued information sharing and transparency, Helping Ravens Soar Annual Reports will be created and published each year. This will help us to highlight the innovations, contributions and successes of our teams, while also remaining accountable to the aspirations, values and goals of our Strategic Plan.
