Our Teacher Training program for Deaf adults is the first of its kind in India. Currently we have students from four cities. The one-year course trains deaf adults to be teachers in deaf schools. It is also the only program in India to offer a Bilingual approach to Deaf education, that is, using Indian Sign Language as the first language to learn other languages.
The consultant to our program is Dr. Madan Vashihsta, a prominent Deaf Educator from Gallaudet University, Washington DC (Gallaudet University is the world's only University for the Deaf.) Our program is being watched very keenly by the Rehabilitation Council of India and other government bodies, and is expected to be replicated in other parts of the country.
