AMERICAN SIGN LANGUAGE
Either educational path begins with courses in American Sign Language. The goal is to provide students with advanced ASL skills and an in-depth understanding of the Deaf Community focusing on a bilingual- bicultural approach. These preparatory courses are the foundation for pursuing a certificate in Deaf Studies or continuing on in the Associate’s degree towards becoming an Interpreter for the Deaf.
