Remote events
Due to the COVID-19 outbreak we’re unable to provide face-to-face training so we’re offering three sessions available remotely. They’re designed to help your business understand the barriers faced by staff and customers who are deaf or have hearing loss, and the steps you can take to overcome them.
Our remote events can be booked exclusively for your business or you can join an open event with delegates from other organisations.

More about our remote events
They range from 60 to 90 minutes, depending on the course.
We can accommodate 10-20 delegates (depending on the session) to allow for interaction.
The training is either delivered by an experienced trainer, who is deaf or has hearing loss, or a senior manager from RNID supported by a deaf colleague to provide first-hand experience of hearing loss in the workplace and as a customer.
Our blog has a wide range of advice and information to help make your business more accessible to deaf people and those with hearing loss. Visit blog >
