Approximately two million newcomers who hold a bachelor’s degree or higher are either unemployed or underemployed in the U.S., according to the Migration Policy Institute. This underutilization not only represents a significant loss of human capital but also underscores the need for programmatic solutions designed to support internationally educated newcomers so they can fully use their skills and education in the United States.
Join us for this insightful webinar on supporting internationally educated newcomers in navigating career pathways in the U.S. World Education Services (WES), a nationally recognized credential evaluation agency, will facilitate a discussion alongside grantees of ORR's Refugee Career Pathways (RCP) program in Idaho. Speakers will discuss how RCP-funded programs are supporting internationally educated ORR-eligible clients by helping them navigate career pathways that leverage their existing education, skills, and experiences. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of how skill underutilization impacts refugees and immigrants, as well as learn about federally funded programmatic solutions that seek to promote successful outcomes for internationally educated newcomers.
Is this webinar for me?
This webinar is designed for workforce and employment service providers, educators, career counselors, and development staff who are dedicated to improving their training and support for newcomers with international education. If you are involved in helping refugees and other ORR-eligible individuals navigate their career pathways in the U.S., this session will offer valuable insights and practical strategies to enhance your approach and better address the unique needs of this population."
