‘Making it’ in the US: education and employment for Afghan refugees

About 65,000 Afghan refugees have arrived in the US since late summer.
Another 30,000 are expected to get here by the end of this year. Tens of
thousands more have escaped to other points around the globe and could
eventually settle in the US.

These refugees are at different points of their lives. Many are highly
educated, have university degrees and are ready and able to go to work. But
others need to return to school to complete their degrees or quickly learn
new job skills. The majority require immersion programmes to learn or
improve their English.
