American Sign Language (ASL) is the third-most-used language in the U.S. It also is one of the most-studied languages in American universities. Learning ASL opens doors of opportunity for careers in interpretation services, makes communication possible with those in the deaf community and extends the reach of client services in health care, legal services and education.
ASL classes at Wake Tech are taught by both hearing and deaf instructors and make use of a video-based curriculum.
