苏格兰在具有了首批国际手语学士学位课程的应届毕业生后，设置了国际手语提供的议程。

十几个新手语口译已在爱丁堡的赫瑞瓦特大学英国手语（BSL）完成硕士学位后获得翻译资格。

这14个毕业生将用于极度匮乏的苏格兰各地BSL口译，目前6000人的社区只有70个口译人员。

Scotland leading the world in sign language provision

From  Herald Scotland

SCOTLAND is setting the agenda for sign language provision internationally thanks to new graduates from the country's first degree course on the subject.

More than a dozen new sign language interpreters have become the first to qualify after completing an MA in British Sign Language (BSL) at Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh.

The 14 graduates will go towards stemming the extreme shortage of BSL interpreters across Scotland, which currently has only 70 interpreters for a community of 6000 people.
