Brazosport College’s Board of Regents recently held its annual board workshop both in-person at the College’s Corporate Learning Center and virtually.

The two-day event consisted of professional development workshop sessions on Feb. 5 and a special board meeting on Feb. 6. The professional development sessions were delivered in a hybrid model, which allowed the Regents and staff to choose between in-person and remote participation. The special board meeting was held remotely.

Among the topics covered were the College’s Vision 2025 Strategic Plan; a report on strategies and measurable objectives; a report on the President’s Leadership Goals; a 10-year financial forecast; and a reaffirmation of the College’s Mission, Vision and Core Values, among other items.

During the professional development sessions, the College Law Enforcement Academy led the Regents through a lab simulator experience, which provided an interactive glimpse of the training used in the College classes.

Additionally, the Regents participated in a special board game that outlined the student experience at Brazosport College, highlighting the successes and obstacles students can encounter throughout their journey at Brazosport College. The game also demonstrated various resources the College provides that can help students overcome many of these obstacles.
