Turkish Sign Language Training
The Turkish Sign Language education offered at Atlas University Continuing Education Center is a program that reinforces the mission and social responsibility awareness of the University. With this education, it is aimed to raise individuals who serve society. Sign language education is seen as an important tool in achieving this goal. By learning sign language, students become more useful individuals to the Deaf community.
Today, communication has become one of the most important elements of social unity and understanding. However, this communication cannot always be achieved through vocal and verbal means. Sign language is a powerful communication tool that allows hearing impaired individuals to connect with society and express their thoughts and feelings. Learning this language helps hearing impaired individuals integrate more into society and reduces the obstacles they face in their daily lives.
