Learning Outcomes (Deaf Awareness)
The cost for our half-day workshops is £600 excl. VAT (£550 for schools/charities/NHS), for up to 18 people attending”
Additionally, due to the success of last year’s Deaf Awareness Week, we have launched a NEW accredited program (see attachment), which is a longer work-based BSL program.
We also run regular refresher programs through the year, free of charge, so that service providers can continue practising and using BSL, and maintain their skills and knowledge.
