Strategic Action Plan

About the Strategic Action Plan

WSAC’s 2027 Strategic Action Plan (PDF, 2.01 MB) (SAP) provides a framework for achieving the state's attainment goal: 70 percent of adults ages 25–44 should have a credential beyond a high school diploma. The plan represents all partners and stakeholders who share this goal and are essential to its success. It is not about the work of one state agency, nor is it only about state legislation and budgets. All sectors have a role to play at the state and community levels. 

This SAP focuses on four connected areas: affordability, enrollment, basic needs, and completion. These areas are crucial for making progress toward the state’s attainment goal. As always, equity is central to these efforts.

This plan outlines the state’s attainment goal, the strategic clusters and values that guide the work, a snapshot of current policy across each cluster, and the Council’s key short-term priorities. While policy discussions often focus on new initiatives or individual programs, much of the state’s work centers on improving and aligning current efforts to increase attainment. 

Stakeholder Engagement Sessions

We held our annual stakeholder engagement sessions on July 7 & 9. We welcomed feedback as we considered potential 2027 budget and legislative requests. A recording of the sessions is now available:
