We are pleased to announce two events to showcase the free online training modules developed as part of an Erasmus+ funded project: “Developing Online Training for Deaf Language Specialists (DOTDeaf)”. Attendance at both events is free of charge. The events will be of interest to a range of professionals who work with deaf children who are BSL users (e.g. Speech & Language Therapists, Teachers, Psychologists, Deaf Professionals) and managers of services for deaf children.
There will be an online UK Workshop on 22 April 2021 to present information about the project and showcase modules in BSL/English.
There will be an online International Conference on 25 June 2021 to share our work with our Spanish, Portuguese and Brazilian partners adapting and translating modules to other spoken and signed languages and the local contexts in each country.
Please save these datesnd look out for the invitation to register for a place, which will be sent out via email and Twitter at the start of March.
