The D-E Work Orientation Program at the Phanat Nikhom Refugee Camp is designed to prepare upper-level (D and E) students to enter and succeed in the American workplace. This preparation is especially important for these refugees since they are more likely than the lower-level students to get jobs during their first few months in the United States. They have greater language proficiency, tend to learn more quickly, and in other ways have more potential to succeed. However, none of these characteristics guarantees that they also have cross-cultural understanding or familiarity with appropriate behavior and language in the American workplace. The program provides 100 hours of preparation in these areas, enabling them to make the most effective use of their skills in the United States. The work orientation program includes daily instruction in math and English and provides on-the-job training simulations. The simulations are offered for electronic assembly, sewing factory, woodworking shop, restaurant, and silk-screening work. A concluding segment addresses refugee perceptions and management of on-the-job relationships. (MSE)
