This qualification is suitable for those who wish to work with and for deaf people who may require support in accessing written English.
Qualification objectives
At the end of the qualification, learners will be able to recognise structures and discourse in English which can cause particular problems for deaf readers, and be able to modify it so it becomes more accessible without changing the meaning or intent of the original written message.

Unit K318 is a theory unit and Unit T303 covers the knowledge and practical skills in English language modification.
