International Students: Help Them Overcome Current Barriers to Persist – On-Demand Training
|
| Overview |
| Although all students have been impacted by COVID-19, the American College Health Association has singled out international students as one of the most vulnerable student populations. They have felt increased levels of fear, anxiety, financial repercussions, and immigration stresses these past several months. Additionally, their mental health and wellbeing have been taxed, as they have juggled all of this while operating largely in isolation from family and friends.
What can you do to mitigate some of the challenges and co-occurring traumatic events international students are experiencing to help them thrive and persist on your campus?
Our expert presenter addresses the challenges your international students are currently facing and the resources you can provide to help them succeed.
Registration: $399*
*Instructions for accessing the On-Demand Training will be available for download immediately after checkout. You may share this On-Demand Training with any staff members from your campus community for unlimited viewing.
