    Event Description:
    The Education & Workforce Development Committee works to improve the future quality of your workforce by hosting many quality educational programs through local partnerships.  Meetings include a presentation by featured speakers in the areas of Education, Job Training, Human Resources and Community Programs.

    The Committee coordinates interaction between businesses and the local school districts, Conejo Valley Unified School District and Las Virgines Unified School District, and partners with private schools and colleges in the Conejo Valley area. The committee also encourages educational excellence by rewarding teachers and students with monthly awards and yearly scholarships.

    This Month's Speaker: Dr. Tiffany Morse - VC Innovates

    As the Executive Director of Career Education at the Ventura County Office of Education, she was selected by the National Association of Women Business Owners - Ventura County as the Education Advocate of the year, and the Workforce Development Board Collaborative Action Award. 

    Tiffany’s most recent work on the VC Innovates Career Pathway Trust grant helped bring $30 million to the county collaborative. She also wrote and received a grant to start the first high school Unmanned Aerial Vehicle curriculum in the state of California. She is currently working on developing several new initiatives including a high school mechatronics curriculum and a Manufacturing, Aerospace, and Robotics Center. 

    Tiffany began her career as a middle school math and science teacher, worked for the California Department of Education, and spent two years working with a different kind of drones as a professional beekeeper before moving to Ventura County.
