Not only does he teach nonprofit courses at CSUN and Phillips Graduate Institute but as Senior Vice president at the Oertel Group, he also provides training and technical assistance to such local organizations as the Center for Nonprofit Management and the Ventura County Community Foundation Resource Center.
