This website is produced by University of Bristol, Centre for Deaf Studies as part of the VOGS project (Vocational Guidance Standard Model for Deaf People in Europe) funded by the EC Leonardo project.

There are simple guides to working with Deaf people for those who have little time (facts and Q & A); a complete guide to using interpreters; a quiz to test your knowledge about sign language and Deaf people; two separate video scenarios in BSL to show you our approach to counseling in employment settings – where you can also learn and polish up your sign language communication; and then a complete resource section with research background, reviews and full details on the VOGS project; there is a final section with the complete VOGS report in BSL.

Why not start with the quiz

Test your knowledge of Deaf people and sign language
