What makes training Students and Young People in BSL so important?

Many young people in their latter years of school will be considering careers within Health & Social Care or looking to work within the Special Educational Needs sector within Education.

BSL is an invaluable language to learn to enhance your skill set in preparation for the above areas of work. There are many career opportunities to work with D/deaf people using Sign Language, such as, Communication Support Professionals, Interpreters, Communication Support Workers, Note takers and Lip Speakers.

Why choose Signature approved courses?

The learner is at the heart of all we do here at Study Sharpe.

All learners undertaking a Signature qualification with us will be guaranteeing they will not only receive teaching expertise that is endorsed by Signature, but they will also gain a qualification that will be recognised by employers and industries alike.

Last but by no means least and perhaps the most important reason for undertaking Signature qualifications with us, is that you will be able to join the growing number of people in the UK who can communicate with a D/deaf BSL user. Through our courses, you will become more Deaf Aware in the process, understand more about the Deaf Community and their rich heritage and Culture, thereby raising awareness to other people and sharing the benefits to all of learning BSL.
