CEU Revisioning

The College of Extended University at Cal Poly Pomona began a revisioning process in early 2020.
The goal was to redefine what the college’s mission and purpose should be for students, colleges, industry partners and the university.
Here is the journey
timeline

Revisioning The CEU: A Process of Redesign

The process of revisioning CEU began by identifying four major areas that they envision to serve. Focus areas are:

  • Industry Partners
  • Global Campus
  • CPP+ Gateway to Growing Careers
  • Rebranding the College

The image below illustrates the brainstorming process that occurred at the beginning stages when discussing this project.

The Process

 

PHASE I - Project Scoping  (May 2020-Nov 2020)

In Phase I of the revisioning process the contributors discussed the CEU’s strengths in programs and services. In this phase contributors discussed hopes and dreams, identified who the CEU was and where they saw the college in the future.

PHASE II - – Envisioning the Opportunity

During Phase II the contributors brought ideas for what we can offer for the future of work. It was a process of discovery, ideating, establishing why the college was important for collaborating with various departments and colleges across the university.

PHASE III - The First Of Many (November 2020 - April 2021)

THE BIG REVEAL – was the time when first of many vision map drafts was put together. Several tweaks and changes were being implemented as the contributors worked together to refine the final vision map.

 

PHASE IVStrategic Initiatives and Organization Alignment (May 2021 - August 2021)

 

In moving forward the new CEU seeks to rename to The College of Professional and Global Education (PGE). The search for a Dean and strategic organizational restructuring will follow. As a result of these initial steps, the PGE will poise itself as a leader as it responds to the adjustments in how our community learns. PGE is ready to address the growing need for non-linear education, global education, and the mindset of engaged and evolving learning.
