Discusses a training session, based on a needs assessment, provided for college English-as-a-Second-Language (ESL) staff whose students were displaced workers. The needs assessment indicated that teachers needed strategies to help students deal with the racial barriers encountered in their job search and with their anxiety focused on the end of training.
