We engage RTI's or RQI's here, They must have passed or are on Interpreter
training, this means they will have BSL to Level 3, the Level 4 NVQ is still
in very early stages with very few people holding it.
Hope this helps
Chris

I'd be very interested to find out from other disability officers as to what
level of communication / signing workers are used for students.
We have staff who are qualified up to level 3 but have a student who feels
she will need an interpreter ( Level 4) which we do not have and have never
provided for students.
