The Associate of Applied Science (A.A.S.) degree in American Sign Language-English Interpretation program is designed to provide the foundational knowledge and skills for entry-level employment or for continued interpreter education within the field of ASL-English Interpretation. Students will learn American Sign Language and sharpen their English skills, and learn how to translate between the two languages.

The American Sign Language-English Interpretation program is a two-year full-time program that prepares students for jobs interpreting between Deaf and hearing people or for continued interpreter training and education at four-year interpreter training programs. Students who complete the ASL-English Interpretation A.A.S degree program will have the knowledge to take both the written portion of the Virginia Quality Assurance Screening (VQAS) and the knowledge portion of the Educational Interpreter's Proficiency Assessment (EIPA), and the foundational skills to prepare for the performance portions of both these tests, as well as pursue additional credentials following completion of the program.
