This session builds on previous learning and introduces new vocabulary relevant to school and workplace environments, as well as more abstract concepts including spatial locations, attributes, pronouns, and actions.

• Expanded vocabulary for practical and educational settings
• Strategies to support individual communication needs
• A Participant’s Manual containing all signs and symbols covered
• A Certificate of Attendance (required for progression to further levels)

Additional Support

Our trainers can discuss individual students and provide tailored ideas and alternative communication strategies to enhance understanding.
