Deaf employees require different communication and teaching styles than hearing individuals. By familiarizing ourselves with their culture and language, we will be better able to deliver information and instruction effectively.
Deaf individuals come from a rich culture, and naturally draw on that culture as well as their native language, ASL, in order to understand and interact with the world around them.
Boeing’s diverse employee population requires flexibility and creativity in terms of instructional strategies. Communication and education will create access for Deaf individuals.
Access means equality.
