During the course, participants acquired basic skills in Ukrainian Sign Language: they learned about its history, studied the dactyl alphabet, and explored the fundamentals of nonverbal communication. The knowledge gained is practically valuable both for inclusive interaction and for supporting service members who have suffered concussions or hearing loss. The program lasted 2.5 months, totaling 60 hours (2 ECTS credits). The educational process was led by professional sign language interpreters from the Kyiv College of Applied Sciences \u2014 Oksana Tereshchenko, Iryna Skolotova, and Larysa Bondarenko \u2014 who provided thorough theoretical and practical training for the participants.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/profzah.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/photo_2025-12-18_15-32-19-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3929\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.5014802815327897;width:668px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/profzah.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/photo_2025-12-18_15-32-19-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/profzah.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/photo_2025-12-18_15-32-19-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/profzah.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/photo_2025-12-18_15-32-19-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/profzah.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/photo_2025-12-18_15-32-19-18x12.jpg 18w, https:\/\/profzah.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/photo_2025-12-18_15-32-19.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Members of the Women\u2019s Wing of the Trade Union during the exam<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cFor the All-Ukrainian Trade Union of Defenders of Ukraine, this course was not just an educational project, but an important step toward creating a barrier-free society sensitive to the needs of veterans.
