The Sign2Me Instructor's Network is a group of instructors coordinated and supported by Sign2Me /Northlight Communications for the purpose of raising awareness about the benefits of using signs with preverbal infants. The Sign2Me Instructor's Network is for qualified individuals who want to provide classes, workshops or consultative services for families, caregivers, and childcare providers. Instructors help share the benefits of signing while earning money as independent business owners through class fees and product sales.
The Sign2Me Instructors' Network is comprised of a diverse group of individuals – signing parents, educators, Speech-Language professionals, ASL Interpreters, native ASL users, medical practitioners, childcare providers, and many others – primarily throughout the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom. These individuals have been responsible for introducing and mentoring tens of thousands of parents, caregivers, and other professionals since the Instructors' Network was established in October 2000.
Before becoming an approved Sign2Me Instructor, each candidate must meet a rigorous set of qualifications and prerequisites. Sign2Me has developed a tiered certification process to reinforce these high professional standards and help interested parents and organizations evaluate the quality of services provided.
Level I Certification
Instructors who have achieved their Level I Certification have demonstrated a competent knowledge of frequently-used signs and strategies for incorporating signing into daily routines.
