The mission of Afrique Prospere Education Inc. is to help immigrant professionals from Francophone countries navigate the corporate world of the United States of America. We provide access to a holistic array of services, such as (1) career and personal development training, (2) 1:1 career coaching, (3) professional documents (resume, cover letter, LinkedIn Profile, Blog) review, (4) interview preparation, (5) salary negotiation coaching,(6) job search strategies, and other services that accelerate the professional integration of francophone immigrant professionals.
Afrique Prospere Education helps immigrant professionals navigate the complex world of work, which often acts as a barrier to the successful integration of skilled and experienced professionals from other countries. By helping immigrants secure sustainable employment and livable wages, we hope to build strong communities where issues such as house insecurity, food insecurity, transportation insecurity, mental health, and substance abuse in immigrant populations are inexistent.
Our organization is registered as a nonprofit in Connecticut and is a recognized 501(C)(3). All our services are free of charge, thanks to the generous donors and contributors supporting our efforts.
Research by the Immigration Institute has shown that immigrants experience high levels of stress daily caused by several things. We also recognize that career transition, in general, is an intense undertaking. Career transition in a different country and a different job market can be energy-draining. Additionally, every immigrant professional has specific needs, skills, experience, strengths, and aspirations.
Our programs and services have been expanded and enhanced to reflect a HERO model. Under this model, our organization first increases the psychological capital of immigrant professionals. Hence, they are motivated to invest in their career transition. Then, we provide a wide array of customized professional services to support them in finding meaningful jobs. This model recognizes that career transition is not an isolated life issue but a problem among many that skilled immigrants deal with. And it takes increased hope, self-efficacy, resilience, and optimism to succeed.
