This is event is by invitation only. Please email [email protected] if you are interested in attending.

Developing immigration enforcement priorities require education institutions to develop or evolve their practices. Educational institutions face the unique challenge of being an employer, a school and even a law enforcement agency. From managing visa-dependent employees to working with students who have immigration processes themselves, institutions need to understand their compliance obligations and risks.

Join us for a timely webcast where a panel of immigration and compliance professionals will explore the shifting enforcement landscape, outline what institutions need to be aware of and share actionable steps to help your campus stay prepared.

What You’ll Learn

This session will provide up-to-date, practical guidance on key areas impacting schools, colleges and universities including:

  • Institutional Readiness: What your institution should have in place for immigration-related compliance reviews, including documentation for employees and their dependents on visas.
  • ICE Enforcement Actions: Developing a clear, coordinated response plan in case of on-site actions involving staff, facilities or student records.
  • Student Visa Compliance: Key responsibilities under F-1 and J-1 visa programs, best practices for SEVIS reporting and how to manage compliance for international students during ongoing policy changes.
  • DHS Site Visits: What to expect during Department of Homeland Security inspections and how to train your team to respond confidently and appropriately.
  • Work Visa Rules: Understanding Labor Condition Application (LCA) requirements and employer responsibilities when sponsoring faculty and staff.
  • Policy Watch: A look at recent and proposed immigration policy changes that may affect students, employees and institutional operations—plus tips on how to stay ahead of the curve.

Who Should Attend?

This session is ideal for professionals across educational institutions who are involved in immigration, compliance or workforce operations such as those listed below:

  • General Counsel and Compliance Officers
  • HR and Administrative Leaders
  • International Student and Scholar Services Staff
  • Business Officers and Operations Managers
  • School and District Administrators
  • Global Mobility and Risk Management Professionals

Whether you're fine-tuning your existing processes or building your compliance strategy from the ground up, this session will help you feel more confident and informed.
