Abstract

To answer the research problem, the researcher sought to answer the following questions: 1. Are the diversity training seminars that are conducted at Old Dominion offered on a voluntary basis? 2. Are issues of diversity better dealt with as a result of training? 3. Are employees encouraged to attend and actively participate in the diversity training seminars? 4. Based on employee feedback, is the program beneficial to employees? 5. As a result of training sessions, is there more of an awareness of prejudice and bias in the workplace?
