In 2006 a five-year strategic plan RMIT 2010: Designing the Future
was put in place to give direction and form to this description. In the
third year of implementation of this plan, it is time to reflect on our
progress to date.
We have already reached some of the targets we set in 2005, but
this means there is more work to maintain as well as building on
early successes. Other goals are still to be reached, but with            Professor Margaret Gardner AO

Although we remain committed to our goals, strategy develops This description is about what RMIT aspires to be in 2010. The through action and reflection. This document is a reminder of our description also evokes the ways that RMIT will achieve its vision. goals, a reflection on progress to date, and a call to action shaped by the circumstances now before us. In 2006 a five-year strategic plan RMIT 2010: Designing the Future was put in place to give direction and form to this description. In the third year of implementation of this plan, it is time to reflect on our progress to date. We have already reached some of the targets we set in 2005, but this means there is more work to maintain as well as building on early successes. Other goals are still to be reached, but with Professor Margaret Gardner AO continued focus and further improvement I am confident that they Vice-Chancellor and President can be realised by 2010. Throughout this journey RMIT has remained committed to those core values that define us as an institution of learning—that we are useful, creative, connected, fair and passionate.
