SignAble Vi5ion
SignAble Vi5ion Inc. helps people who want to become inclusive communicators learn the applied skills needed to embody their role as change-makers by providing tools, teaching, and resources. SignAble Vi5ion Inc.’s allies gain the skills and awareness to make accessibility and inclusion parts of ordinary, everyday life—including in the workplace. Once fellow employees can communicate with Deaf employees, they can learn who they are and see the potential to grow in their careers. SignAble Vi5ion Inc.’s submission was to create an e-learning course called “Sign2Succeed in the Workplace,” which will focus on enhancing the inclusion of Deaf people and others who communicate differently by creating a more sign-friendly workplace. This project will create cmi5 packaged learning modules which we will market to businesses to deploy on their Learning Management Systems (LMS).
