The summit gave GoElite an opportunity to connect directly with F-1 students about practical training, work authorization, career planning, and the challenges they face as they pursue professional opportunities in the United States
United States, 24th Sep 2026 — GoElite, the global education platform that connects international students with top universities and hybrid programs, today announced that it successfully participated in the Open Atlas Summit in Milpitas, California. At the event, the GoElite team provided international students with guidance on Curricular Practical Training (CPT) and Optional Practical Training (OPT) compliance. The Summit gave GoElite an opportunity to connect directly with F-1 students about practical training, work authorization, career planning, and the challenges they face as they pursue professional opportunities in the United States.

“We met our objectives at the Summit, which were to help international students navigate how CPT and OPT operate under the new US government guidelines,” said a spokesperson for GoElite. “However, there is more to succeeding as an international student than just CPT compliance and OPT compliance. Our conversations extended beyond regulatory explanations. Talks with students and speakers at the Summit revealed insightful perspectives that continue to resonate with us.”

The Summit provided an opportunity for GoElite to combine its international education expertise with advice regarding international student careers. This included direct career engagement that sought to gain a deeper understanding of the questions and challenges F-1 students face as they transition from their academic programs into the U.S. workforce. To this end, GoElite also participated in the summit’s career fair, connecting with international talent pursuing professional opportunities, including candidates interested in an AI engineer position.
