procedures
To achieve the Level 2 Certificate in British
Sign Language qualification, candidates must
successfully pass all three unit assessments.
Learners must be registered for assessment
with Signature in advance. Assessment dates
will be decided by the tutor. Once learners and
the assessment dates have been registered, it
is vital that you attend, as any alterations will
incur an additional charge.
