Netter Next will play to the school's unique strengths, define mission-aligned points of innovation and differentiation, and outline a clear vision and roadmap for success in the school's second decade. Integral to this process will be the development of specific and measurable goals related to equity, inclusion, and diversity, which will be interwoven and mutually reinforced with all our strategic plan goals.

An effective strategic plan will unify the school around a common vision and shared values, align resources to critical priorities and outline a clear roadmap for meaningful action.
Throughout this inclusive process, we will engage faculty, staff, students, alumni, university leaders, donors and hospital and community partners.
The Steering Committee has aligned on its charge and timeline. The committee has also gathered and reviewed market trends and relevant data, including case studies from peer institutions to inform their thinking regarding future opportunities for the Netter School of Medicine.
We are gathering broad input from our community regarding future priorities. Once we have completed our focus groups and interviews, we will begin to prioritize our strategic options and develop a draft of focused priorities, initiatives, measurements and resources required to support implementation. The goal is the share the progress of this plan with the community in late 2022.
We appreciate your interest and welcome your participation! We encourage you to provide your comments via the online suggestion box and to view regular updates on the strategic planning website.
Focus groups, interviews and surveys will be conducted this fall. Please be on the lookout for invitations to participate. Contact Mara Saccente with any questions
