A MESSAGE FROM DR. SHELLY MONDEIK
Greetings!
My name is Dr. Shelly Mondeik, and I am honored to be able to serve as the sixth president of Mid-State Technical College.
In the short time I have been here, I have been able to get out into a number of the communities in Mid-State’s district to visit businesses, K–12 schools, leaders, and community members. The incredible discussions and conversations we’ve had truly make me look forward to what we can accomplish together. Over the next few months, I look forward to getting to know you even better and identifying even more opportunities for partnerships. Together we can create new and innovative approaches to meeting the needs of our communities and businesses here in central Wisconsin. • K–12 – Building and enhancing our K–12 partnerships • Programming – Reviewing programs for the five R’s—right programs with the right curriculum offered in the right format and right delivery mode in the right location at the right time • Workforce & Economic Development – Offering ongoing customized solutions to our business partners • Continuing Education – Meeting professional development and community enrichment needs for all in our district Moving forward, our efforts for the communities we serve will continue to focus on four key areas:
I am glad to be a part of Mid-State and look forward to working with all of you.

ONE MASTER PLAN
why choose mid-State?
EDUCATIONAL MASTER PLAN The needs of our students and the workforce we serve are always changing. Today we serve a population on the decline in some areas of our district, and we continue to see declining enrollments as a result. We also face the added reality that our student mix has shifted to a high percentage of part-time students. Clearly, our ability to offer dynamic programs and flexible scheduling and delivery modes (e.g., online vs. face to face) and improve student outcomes is essential to our continued value as an educational provider of choice in our campus communities. When it comes to how we align and coordinate our efforts to improve student outcomes, we look to our Educational Master Plan. Finalized in spring 2016, The EMP identifies actions to support the College’s institutional 2015–2020 Strategic Plan.
