Practical Training Workshops at ISSS for F-1 Visa Holders Post-Completion Optional Practical Training (OPT) Are you graduating this year? Do you want to look for an internship or job in the U.S. after you finish your degree? If yes, you should attend the Post-Completion OPT workshop. The workshop will cover the basics on OPT application procedures, work authorization, work requirements and OPT extension opportunities. Pre-Completion Practical Training (OPT and CPT) Are you looking for internships off-campus? Does your academic program have a required internship or practicum?
