Last year, ABN launched our AI Training for Immigrant Job Seekers, where skilled immigrants can learn to use AI-powered tools for their career advancement.

Since launching this program in October 2025, we have completed three virtual trainings and one in-person training. Thank you to the University of Massachusetts Lowell and the Cambridge Public Library for their support in this initiative.
