MARK C. ANDERSON Candidate for San Diego County Board of Education + District 4

SYNOPSIS Experienced professional with a record of over 20 years proven accomplishments in the areas of research, application, and evaluation of educational and health services.

Areas of Major Experience Community Services: My network with various public and private agencies and businesses is focused on workplace and community responses to health concerns and productivity issues. Extensive experience with large and small corporations, municipalities and counties, health care providers, and colleges provide a solid foundation on which to build a collaborative focus for the Board of Education and the school districts.

Program Planning: Budget analysis, market research, and contract negotiations are specific skills that I will bring to the Board and which will prove very useful, both directly and in a supportive manner. My efforts as primary author and consultant in writing grants have been successful in securing over $1,000,000 in funding from Federal, County, and private sources.

Coordination: I believe in the team approach to task accomplishment. My ability to motivate and encourage personnel has produced results in a variety of work settings. As a college instructor, these skills have transferred very well into fostering positive learning efforts among students from all walks of life, including the military, home-schooled students, and other non-traditional learners.
