About Dr. Roseann Mikos
-
- 27-year Moorpark resident and homeowner.
- Councilmember who lives in Eastern Moorpark (Campus Park West area).
- A lifelong educator (30+ years) who has worked at all levels from Kindergarten through University; and for numerous private business, industrial, and military clients.
- A career business woman who operates two businesses out of her home, a training and education consulting practice (since 1983) and an internet related direct marketing business (since 1999).
Her consulting practice involves developing training and performance support programs for business, industry, government, or military clients. Part of her practice also involves grant writing.
- Locally from 1999 - 2005: wrote winning grant applications for Moorpark College worth more than $6 Million to the college and local community.
Many of these were collaborations with the Moorpark Unified School District. Many of the grant topic areas have been focused around the innovative “learning community” approach to teaching and learning and include:
- Teaching Technoliteracy
- The High School at Moorpark College (2 grants)
- Teacher and Reading Development Partnerships (from Kindergarten through University
- AmeriCorps Teacher Training
- California Learning Communities Network—Pathways to Higher Education (an effort with statewide impact)
- Smaller Learning Communities at Moorpark High School
- Workforce Instructional Equipment Grants in Health Sciences, Multimedia, and Biotechnology
- CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant) Opens Pathways to Healthcare
- California Learning Community College Network Grant
- Tech Prep Demonstration Program (for High School @ Moorpark College); 2 grants from U.S. Dept. of Education
- Tech Prep Local Networks and Collaboratives Project (California Dept. of Education and California Community Colleges)
- Served as Moorpark College's first full-time grant writer in the 2000-2001 academic year; and, again from August 2002 through August 2005, until the budget crisis at the Ventura County Community College District forced her lay-off.
- Accepted a faculty appointment to be Project Director for the California Learning Community College Network Grant, a three-year grant at Moorpark College from 2001-2004 (effective August 14, 2001).
Due to the state budget crisis, this grant was cancelled by the State of California after only one year. So, Dr. Mikos returned to her prior position as Resource Development Coordinator/Grant Writer, as noted above.
- Returned to her independent consultancy practice in September 2005 to provide training, education, grant/proposal development, and performance improvement consulting to both private and public sector clients.
- From 2005 to present: wrote or participated on a team in writing winning grant, contract, or award applications for a variety of California non-profit or business clients worth more than $21 Million to the collection of organizations, including:
- Homeless Per Diem Program to provide 20 beds for homeless veterans at a regional non-profit corporation's residential facility, plus a van to help transport veterans to supportive services (from U.S. Dept. of Veterans Affairs).
- Even Start Family Literacy Grant for an elementary school in Los Angeles County, CA; funded by the California Dept. of Education.
- Distinguished School Award from the California Dept. of Education for an elementary school in Orange County, CA.
- Markley Cove Concession, awarded by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation for one of the concessions at Lake Berryessa, CA.
- Targeted Year Round Overnight Emergency Shelter Program For Families, funding 24 beds for a homeless provider in the City of Los Angeles, CA (from the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority).
