About Us

We are an independent specialist provider of British Sign Language and sign language interpreting and translation qualifications. We offer a range of sign language interpreting and translation services, including BSL interpreters and BSL translators. Our interpreting and translation service is built on the principle of forming connections, matching a project with suitable language professionals. We are not about filling contracts: we’re all about quality over quantity. 

All of our courses are accredited by Signature, the leading awarding body for British Sign Language and interpreting qualifications. We are one of the few centres in the UK to offer the full suite of BSL and interpreting qualifications. We offer pathways to suit a wide range of profiles, from our Level 1 to Level 6 BSL courses for hearing people learning BSL as a second language, to our unique Interpreter Development Programme for Heritage Signers, which trains hearing native signers to become qualified interpreters. In particular, we have built up a strong reputation for our interpreter training courses, which are considered amongst the best in the country. They’re designed to prepare graduates for a successful career as a professional sign language interpreter or translator, and many of our graduates have done exceptionally well. 

There are lots of reasons why people learn BSL, or want to become an interpreter. That’s why we want to make sure every learning experience is a positive and enjoyable experience, as well as one that helps our beloved deaf community to flourish. We work with a highly skilled and experienced team, including deaf and hearing interpreters, translators, teachers, assessors and verifiers. All of our BSL teachers are deaf, native BSL signers. Our skillset as a training team is formidable, which means you have the opportunity to learn from the very best in the field.
