I approached the Strategic Planning for Educational Institutions course with a mix of excitement and trepidation, as I was unsure what to expect. As a policy analyst in France, I was interested in learning more about strategic planning in the context of educational institutions. The course provided a thorough introduction to the key concepts, frameworks, and tools used in strategic planning, and I appreciated the emphasis on critical thinking, analysis, and problem-solving. The course materials were well-researched and up-to-date, and the instructor's feedback was constructive and helpful. While some of the topics could have been explored in more depth, I found the course to be well-organized and easy to follow. Overall, I'm satisfied with the course, and I believe it has provided me with a solid foundation for further learning and professional development in the field of educational policy and planning.
