KATHMANDU: Study Group, a leading provider of international education, has welcomed the new actions declared recently by the Biden-Harris Administration, which are meant to support international students seeking science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) careers in the US after their completion of the study.

The Biden-Harris Administration has recently announced a few changes to facilitate a better career and stay in the USA for meritorious international students who aspire to build a career in that country after completing their program of study.

As these policies unfold, it becomes increasingly vital for aspiring students to stay informed and engaged with the latest updates and opportunities available to them. Utilizing resources like the AfterSchoolAfrica (aSA) website can empower young individuals with the knowledge and insights necessary to navigate the complexities of international education and career pathways effectively.

Catering to the needs of ambitious and driven individuals, this website offers a comprehensive array of information on scholarships, competitions, funding opportunities, and youth-centric events. It stands as a beacon of support and guidance, empowering African youth to explore and seize the plethora of capacity development opportunities available globally.

As part of those actions,22 new fields of study have been added in the STEM Optional Practical Training (OPT) program, which is designed to enable international students with an F-1 visa earning Bachelors, Masters, and Doctorates in certain STEM fields to stay in the US for up to 36 months to get work experience after earning their degrees.

As families increasingly embrace online education, schools themselves are recognizing the importance of maintaining an engaging digital presence. A well-designed school website is now more than just a virtual brochure; it’s a gateway to a vibrant learning community. With intuitive navigation, visually appealing layouts, and seamless integration of multimedia content, school websites play a crucial role in communicating the institution’s values, programs, and achievements to both current and prospective students and parents.

Moreover, in an era where information is accessed at the click of a button, investing in professional school website design is essential for ensuring visibility and credibility in the competitive educational landscape. From providing easy access to course materials and event calendars to facilitating communication between teachers, students, and parents, a well-optimized website serves as a central hub for all things related to the educational journey. By embracing modern design principles and leveraging innovative technologies, schools can create digital environments that foster collaboration, engagement, and continuous learning.
