College Plan

As of now, these goals remain the

same. The office is working with Akron

WDCE and MCUC to establish a more

centralized focus that will provide

more opportunities for growth and

reduce inefficiencies.

We spent a lot of time this year in

trying to become one unit with Akron

and MCUC. This has been a challenge

and still a work in progress.

1A Create an opportunity funnel of at least

$50,000 or more in potential contract training

sales at all times that will meet annual

targeted revenue

This was maintained over the last fiscal

year. However, contract training was

down overall this year. There was on

major project that fell through. The

company received a large training

grant and then backed out.

1B Increase average enrollment per class for both

existing and new programming by 10%

annually to meet annual revenue targets

Open enrollment revenues stayed

about the same from 12 to 13. We will

not have the final amounts until after

the year close.

1C Increase individual and company tests and

assessments by at least 20% annually to

increase testing revenues $5000 or more for
