Course Overview
You might not be a lawyer, but this course will help you think like one. You will begin by exploring the many reasons why it's important to have a corporate business immigration policy. By understanding the impact that hiring foreign nationals can have on your company, you will be able to determine the type of policy your organization should have and then partner effectively with your legal counsel to design it.

You will be able to determine the visas that are the most cost efficient, time saving, and risk averse for your company. As you progress through the course, you will discover the steps to take to ensure your foreign national employees are properly documented as legal workers in the United States.
