Change is coming! The new H-1B Participant Individual Record Layout (PIRL) 2025 will change how Nursing Expansion grantees collect, track, and report participant data and how participants show up on the Quarterly Performance Report (QPR). Employment outcomes will undergo a significant shift in how they are captured, which will impact all grantees and the associated grant targets. Learn about what’s changing and how to prepare for the transition.
