Workplace Application:
Learn best practices and communication tactics for complying with immigration laws and preparing for enforcement actions. 

The Trump administration continues to be marked by policy changes and heightened enforcement for employment-based visa programs and employment verification. More of the same is expected, so you need to be prepared. Learn how to stay in compliance, and to acquire strategies for communicating internally about laws and policies—those recently enacted, as well as those coming down the pike from the administration, Congress and government agencies.

Learning Objectives:

  • Gain a better understanding of recent policy changes and enforcement trends for DACA, AB450, employment-based visa programs, and employment verification, and find out what to expect in the year ahead.
  • Learn best practices for visa compliance and audit preparation, especially for H-2Bs and H-1Bs.
  • Know what you are required to do if and when ICE shows up on-site to conduct an audit.
  • Learn communication strategies for ensuring that your C-suite, managers and foreign nationals have appropriate information about the current and future state of employment-based immigration.
