Educational opportunities can change the life trajectories of immigrant-origin adult learners and their families. In addition, immigrant-origin learners are a key constituency in adult and higher education as institutions recover from the recent enrollment decline. Join this webinar to discover insights from a critical participatory action research study that explored students’ journeys and counterstories. Implications of this study include shifts in instructional practices, support program policies, and staff and faculty training approaches. Let’s start a conversation about how your program can help dismantle barriers and leverage immigrant-origin adult learners’ strengths.
