2008 Strategic Master Plan for
Higher Education in Washington
The Higher Education Coordinating Board is charged with creating a strategic master plan for higher education once every 10 years, with updates every four years.
The 2008 plan, adopted December 2007, was presented to the 2008 Legislature for review and approval.
See: HCR 4408
In November 2008, the HECB approved a plan for implementing the policy goals and recommendations of the 2008 plan. This report provides analysis and strategies to guide the development of the state’s higher education system over the next decade and beyond.

Community members, elected officials, institutional faculty, staff, and students were invited to participate in public forums held in various locations throughout the state.
