The Moorpark College Foundation is pleased to announce its first Job Ready Alumni Forum at 6 p.m., on Sept.2nd . This first hour-long panel discussion with questions and answers will focus on the Moorpark College Nursing program.
The Moorpark College Foundation Job Ready Alumni Forum is an open discussion on how alumni found their way to Moorpark College and how the college positioned them for transfer to a four-year university and/or workforce preparation.
It explores the relationships that exist between Moorpark College and local industries and how these relationships help students transition into the workforce. The intended audience is current students, returning adult-learners in career transition or members of the community.
The forum will be hosted by Moorpark College Nursing Coordinator, Christina Lee, and will be delivered via Zoom webinar.
Panelist for this first Job Ready Alumni Forum will be:
- Kathy Trigueiro, Los Robles Hospital, Market Director of Clinical Professional Development. Kathy has been a registered nurse in multiple roles in Ventura County before becoming Los Robles Hospital’s Director Education and then the Market Director of Clinical Professional Development. She is a strong supporter of Moorpark College’s nursing program and has been involved with the employment and careers of many Moorpark College nursing alumni.
- Gabriel Guillen, RN Coordinator, Palliative Care at Dignity Health - Gabriel graduated from the nursing program at Moorpark College in 2009 with his R.N. degree and later transferred to CSU Channel Islands for his Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN)
- Alisha Taylor RN, BS – Alisha graduated from Moorpark College School of Nursing in 2004 and has worked through different clinical experiences at many of the local hospitals in the Intensive Care Unit and the Emergency Room in Ventura County.
“We’re excited to offer this first Job Ready Alumni Forum in Nursing,” said John Loprieno, Interim Director of Institutional Advancement, Public Relations and Marketing. “The Nursing students at Moorpark College have a 95% pass rate on the National Nursing Exam and so many of our alumni are on the front line right now in our community with the Covid-19 crisis. This forum will both inform our students and community about the job placement process within our Nursing program as a well as celebrate the work that Moorpark College alumni are doing in healthcare in our community.
Future Forums will feature discussions on one of the 23 other Career Education programs available at Moorpark College. The Moorpark College Foundation is proud to sponsor this first event of our Job Ready Alumni Forum series.
