The sign language session was very interactive and effective. It's great to see all our employees fully engaging themselves in Sign Language. We are in the process of hiring persons with disabilities and this has given us the confidence to hire persons with hearing impairment.

It's a very helpful session. Now I can also convey messages and talk to our deaf colleagues by sign language instead of writing it on paper. It's really a great session. Thank you!

Awareness workshop on Indian Sign Language for inclusive interactions within the organization
Brief Overview on the Indian sign language workshop
Free and open communication between employees is the key to a successful and productive work environment. But what happens when the communication is hindered due to lack of a suitable medium and understanding? People with hearing impairments often face an issue in communicating with their peers and understanding their perspectives. The same happens the other way around. With an aspiration to promote inclusive communication, Atypical Advantage introduced an Indian Sign Language workshop that helps employees familiarize themselves with the basics of a language that can bridge the gap between them and their disabled peers.
