However, literature dealing with training supervisors to work with linguistically diverse supervisees is limited and supervisors&rsquo; training needs for effectively supervising linguistically diverse supervisees are not yet clearly addressed. The aim of this qualitative study was to develop a theory which explained supervisors&rsquo; perceptions of their multicultural training needs for working with English language learning supervisees. Constructivist grounded theory was utilized in this effort to analyze the data gathered from 10 supervisors who speak English as first language and are providing clinical supervision in a CACREP program. Three superordinate themes as well as five themes and seventeen subthemes were constructed and explained.</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> Anyone interested in attending this Ph.D. dissertation proposal defense may obtain a copy of the document prior to the meeting by sending an email to Tim Grothaus at <a href="mailto:tgrothau@odu.edu">tgrothau@odu.edu</a></p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> Tim Grothaus, Ph.D., NCC, NCSC, ACS</p> <p> Associate Professor, Counseling Graduate Program Director Counseling and Human Services Department Old Dominion University Education Building, Room 110 Norfolk, VA 23529</p> <p> (757) 683-3007</p> <p> <a href="mailto:tgrothau@odu.edu">tgrothau@odu.edu</a></p> <p> &nbsp;</p>
