PROGRAM PLANNING
Program planning is central to the educational mission of University
of Wisconsin-Extension. It brings people together to clarify and
develop goals, strategies and action steps to serve the people
of Wisconsin. On an ongoing basis, faculty and staff engage in
a variety of planning exercises: annual plans of work, multi-year
plans of work, and every 4 years the organization as a whole engages
in a statewide program planning process that solicits broad citizen
input. The Program Development and Evaluation Unit is responsible
for supporting these individual and organizational planning efforts
through training, resource development and evaluation.

MULTI YEAR PROGRAM PLANNING
Resources from the Previous 4 Year Planning Process -
These documents were developed by University of Wisconsin-Extension
to aid Wisconsin counties with statewide program priority setting
for 2000-2004, a process designed to solicit feedback from Extension
stakeholders, partners and other community resources. These resources
will help counties that need to begin the planning process right
away. Revised materials for the next planning process will be
made available by June 30, 2003.
