Action Plan for Implementing Digital Technologies

3.2. Step 2: Creating strategies (TOWS)

Based on the SWOT elements, we formulate three types of strategies:

1. Corrective (SO-WT): using strengths and opportunities to mitigate weaknesses and threats.
   
   • (S1, S2 → W1) Develop a mentoring support program with the help of the alumni network to reduce student stress.
   • (S3 → W2) Improve the student performance tracking system by applying existing digital tools.
   • (O2 → W1) Organize stress management workshops featuring experts from the local industry.
2. Defensive (WT): plans to neutralize weaknesses and threats.
   
   • (T2) Establish simplified administrative procedures for faster implementation of educational innovations.
   • (W3) Secure additional resources through grants and partnerships to support professional mentoring programs.
   • (T2, T3) Update study policies in line with new regulatory requirements.
3. Aggressive (SO): using strengths and opportunities for growth.
   
   • (S1, O1, O2) Prepare a project proposal for EU funds aimed at improving digital infrastructure.
   • (S1, O3) Expand cooperation with industry by offering joint specialized modules.
   • (S1, O3) Utilize the alumni network to promote the faculty and attract new students.
