Project Description

SLED offers a range of workshops related to Deaf Education and South African Sign Language.

These include:

Workshops for teachers and teaching assistants in teaching South African Sign Language literature (stories, poems etc).  Workshops are dynamic and include direct engagement with the SASL text and classroom based options.

Coming soon:  NEW Workshops for teachers and teaching assistants in teaching English to Deaf learners.

SLED offers a variety of South African Sign Language courses at *NQF Level 4 and NQF Level 5, based on Unit Standards accredited by the ETDP SETA.  These accredited courses are currently only available for selected participants for Deaf education related purpopses. 

SLED also offer intensive purpose-specific SASL workshops,  which are not accredited.  These can be designed for particular workplace needs or for parents of Deaf children.

Public SASL workshop dates are announced at least month before the time on this website, the SLED Facebook page and our public class blog page to which one can subscribe by entering an email address to “follow”.
