Also you can use option with dynamic management function sys.dm_fts_parser
Before script execution you need check full-text component is installed:

SELECT FULLTEXTSERVICEPROPERTY ('IsFulltextInstalled')

0 = Full-text is not installed. 1 = Full-text is installed. NULL = Invalid input, or error.

If 0 = Full-text is not installed then this post is necessary to you How to install fulltext on sql server 2008?

SELECT b.ID, b.Name, STUFF((
SELECT ',' + d.Dept
FROM Employees e 
  JOIN Departments d ON d.ID IN(
                                SELECT display_term 
                                FROM sys.dm_fts_parser('"' + e.Depts + '"', 1033, NULL, 0) 
                                WHERE display_term NOT LIKE 'nn%'
                                )
WHERE b.ID = e.ID
ORDER BY d.Dept
FOR XML PATH('')), 1, 1, '') AS Depts
FROM Employees b

OR

SELECT e.ID, e.Name, 
 (
  STUFF((
  SELECT ',' + Dept
  FROM sys.dm_fts_parser('"' + e.Depts + '"', 1033, NULL, 0) p JOIN Departments d ON p.display_term = d.ID
  WHERE display_term NOT LIKE 'nn%'
  FOR XML PATH('')), 1, 1, '')
  ) AS Depts
 FROM Employees e
