Academic Training Info Session for J-1 Students

Come learn about Academic Training! Academic Training is practical experience that must be authorized and relates to a student's field of study. Appropriate activities vary over disciplines. For example, postdoctoral academic training in biochemistry might consist of paid research at one location with one faculty adviser, where academic training in music may involve a number of paid or unpaid teaching or performance opportunities. Academic training may involve sequential or simultaneous activities, either paid or unpaid, with several employers, provided the application and approval procedures are followed for each employer and activity, and the time limits are not exceeded.
