Strategic Planning On Line (SPOL)
Strategic Planning On Line (SPOL) is a web-based software program that operates on Internet Explorer. SPOL is a planning tool that was developed to document and track the progress of the College’s strategic goals and planning priorities and, more specifically, the progress of the annual objectives developed by each college planning unit. This system allows users to enter and edit their objectives and to gain access to other unit plans and information on-line. Users are assigned a User Name and Password to gain access to the system from their computer and to protect the integrity of the system. The URL to access SPOL is https://cfcc.strategicplanningonline.com/spolnet/default.aspx.
There are four groups of users who enter information in SPOL:
Budget Centers are the president and vice presidents
Administrators are the deans
Department Chairs/Directors
Unit Managers include everyone else who develops objectives for a planning unit.
College personnel not included in one of the four groups listed above do not have on-line access to the system for data entry. However, it is expected that unit managers will seek input from other employees within their unit.
A “generic user” code may be available soon to allow anyone to login to the system with “read-only” rights.
Each unit plan in SPOL contains the following information by year:
Unit Purpose
CFCC Mission Statement
CFCC Goals
CFCC Planning Priorities
Objectives
Objective Type
Tasks to implement to meet the Objectives
Assessment Criteria for Measuring Success/Accomplishment of the Objectives
Results of Objectives
Use of Results for Improvement
Impact of Objectives on Other Planning Units
Status Reports
Approval Status
