Embark on Your BSL Level 3 Journey...

What is BSL Level THREE? Your journey continues! This is where things start to get a bit different from BSL Levels ONE and TWO. Signature’s Level THREE Certificate in BSL takes your understanding to a whole new level. It deepens your receptive and productive skills so you can engage in longer interactions on a broader range of topics. Level THREE is suitable if you want to continue learning as a hobby, to improve interactions with friends and family, or if your journey is leading you towards a career working with Deaf people, maybe as a Communication Support Worker, or a Support Worker for Deaf People, where you need a deeper understanding of the language and deaf culture. Or even as the next step towards becoming a Registered Sign Language Interpreter or Translator! Learning Outcomes: The learning outcomes are delivered via a wider range of set topics, including: Home Life Social & Recreational Activities Education & Training Employment Consumer Issues & Daily Living Deaf History & Culture Class tuition will involve group sessions, tutorials, student/tutor observations, presentations and mock assessments leading up to preparation for the end of unit assessments. There will also be weekly supervised sessions with a BSL Guru to address any questions from the lessons and assist with any homework. These sessions will take place for one hour during lunch, offering a drop-in service with the benefit of supervised online learning.
