Key Word Sign Workshop for Parents – Rockhampton thumbnail.


Join our accredited Key Word Sign (KWS) presenter and the DSIDQ Education Team for a 2-hour KWS workshop in Rockhampton which aims to help families who are currently using, or are thinking about using KWS.

What is Key Word Sign?
Key Word Sign (KWS) adds signs to spoken words. The key words in a message are signed. KWS is not a sign language, but it borrows the signs from the sign language of the country it is used in. In Australia, this is Auslan.
Key Word Sign Australia acknowledges the deaf community for the use of Auslan signs.

What does the workshop include?
– Introduction to Key Word Sign
– Research-based engaging presentation
– Numerous opportunities to practice
– Printable KWS resources
