Work On and Off-Campus: International Students

(Approved for 1.5 CPD hours) 

Many international students are able to aid themselves financially by working during their studies. However, not every student meets the eligibility criteria to be able to do so, and are often left confused and frustrated if this is not communicated to them early in their academic careers. International student advisors, career counselors, recruitment specialists and academic advisors can work together collaboratively to aid students in understanding what programs make them eligible to work, how they can maintain their eligibility, and what work opportunities will aid them achieving their career ambitions upon graduation.

This webinar will provide an overview of the ability for international students to work on or off-campus, and how student services units can work in collaboration to aid our international students to maintain eligibility. The presenters will also go over recent updates, and suggest how international student advisors can aid students in understanding how these updates have affected them. The presentation will be focused on common and complex student scenarios faced by international student advisors, and how advisors can help students navigate them.

Upon completion of this webinar, participants should be able to:

• Support international students in understanding the regulations surrounding the ability to work on/off-campus
• Collaborate with other student services units to aid international students in becoming eligible and/or maintaining their eligibility to work on/off-campus
• Problem-solve with students who may have lost their eligibility to work on/off-campus
