Environmental Scanning

Environmental scanning is the systematic collection and monitoring of information describing changes in the internal and external environment in order to identify and assess developments, trends and precursor events that may affect the strategic and operational objectives of an organization.

Moraine Park Technical College conducts collaborative environmental scanning on a regular basis to inform strategic planning activities such as developing annual objectives and institutional plans.

The College Environmental Scan Report is shared internally with employees and is available upon request to external organizations. If you would like to obtain a copy of Moraine Park’s most recent Environmental Scan Report, please email Laura Waurio at mptcresearch@morainepark.edu
