@rociomorales
Program Coordinator managing workforce development programs, budgets, and compliance while supporting ESL/GED learners.
What I'm looking for
At Union College of Union County, NJ, I manage daily operations, budgets, and compliance for a state-funded Displaced Homemaker Grant while planning career-readiness workshops and educational programs. I also prepare reports and analyze program performance data for stakeholders and funding agencies.
Before that, I worked at Union College as a Student Services Generalist / Test Specialist, developing individualized education and career plans for ESL and GED students. I administered DRC CLAS-E and CASAS assessments, monitored student progress across programs like WFNJ, TANF, GA, SNAP, and TRA, and maintained confidential records.
Earlier in my career, I served as an AmeriCorps VISTA / Program Coordinator at Groundwork Elizabeth, expanding community outreach and writing grant proposals for corporate, foundation, and government funders. I also worked as a Marketing and Web Broadcast Intern at V-ME Media, supporting SEO/SEM analysis, social media, website content, and campaign materials.
