BSL Level 1 Award – Learn. Connect. Sign.
Start Your BSL Journey with Us
At BSL Sign Unite, we believe learning British Sign Language should be supportive, friendly, and inspiring. Our Level 1 Award is the perfect place to begin – whether you’re learning to connect with Deaf friends or family, for work, or simply to open your world.
This full qualification is made up of three engaging units, taught online by patient, experienced tutors who understand what it’s like to be a beginner. You’ll learn in small groups, build confidence every step of the way, and join a community that grows with you.
What You’ll Learn:
BSL101 – Introduction to BSL
Begin with the basics – how to greet people, count, talk about travel and the weather, and follow simple directions. This module sets the foundation for your journey and is assessed internally before being confirmed by Signature (the national awarding body).
BSL102 – Conversational BSL
Time to start chatting! You’ll build confidence in everyday conversations – describing people, animals, and objects, sharing your interests, and talking about food and drink.
BSL103 – Everyday Life in BSL
Now it’s real-world time – give and follow directions, describe places, talk about work and education, and exchange useful everyday information.
Each unit includes around 20–22 guided learning hours, with extra practice in your own time, adding up to around 90 hours total.

BSL Level 2 Award – Build Confidence. Deepen Skills. Sign with Ease.
Take Your BSL to the Next Level
If you’ve completed Level 1 or have a solid understanding of everyday BSL, our Level 2 Award is your next step forward. This course helps you grow from a confident beginner into a fluent signer, ready to hold detailed conversations and express yourself in real-time situations.
Delivered fully online by experienced tutors, Level 2 helps you build on what you already know – introducing more depth, natural flow, and expressive clarity to your signing.
Course Structure:
The full qualification is made up of three exciting units, each assessed separately by Signature (the awarding body). You’ll be supported throughout with practice sessions, group learning, and tutor-led feedback.
BSL201 – Receptive Skills in BSL
It’s time to tune in! Develop your ability to watch and fully understand signed communication – stories, real-life scenarios, and presentations. The exam is multiple choice, based on videos set by Signature.
BSL202 – Productive Skills in BSL
Show what you can do! You’ll prepare and deliver a signed presentation on a topic that interests you. It’s all about fluency, clarity, and confidence, assessed by an external Signature examiner.
BSL203 – Conversational Skills in BSL
Now for real conversation. You’ll take part in a 1-to-1 BSL conversation with an assessor, showing you can respond naturally, take turns, and share opinions in real time.
Time Commitment
- BSL201 – 30 guided hours + 20 hours independent study
- BSL202 – 35 guided hours + 15 hours independent study
