Strategic Plan
2023 - 2026
Algoma University’s new Strategic Plan is a commitment not only to change the lives of its students but to have a meaningful impact on the communities the university serves, for generations to come.
Strategic Priorities
2023 - 2026
The Strategic Priorities evolve from an annual facilitated retreat between members of the Board, Senate and Administration and are guided by the Strategic Plan to assist the University in achieving its objectives.
Built through a visioning session, virtual and in-person learning circles and virtual two-to-one conversations where insights from over 700 knowledge-holders were gathered — including insights from First Nations, Métis, and Inuit partners and community members — Algoma University’s new Strategic Plan is a commitment not only to change the lives of its students but to have a meaningful impact on the communities the university serves, for generations to come.
