Virginia's open K-12 educational interpreter jobs appear on this page, along with the screening levels and EIPA scores a school division checks before hiring.

Qualifications by communication mode

Section E of 8VAC20-81-40, part of Virginia's special education regulations, sets the bar. The requirements that took effect in 2010 differ by mode:

  • Sign language: a Virginia Quality Assurance Screening (VQAS) Level III, or a passing Educational Interpreter Performance Assessment (EIPA) written test plus an EIPA performance score of 3.5 or higher. The Virginia Department for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing (VDDHH) can also accept another state or national credential as equal to VQAS Level III, except the Certificate of Deaf Interpretation.
  • Cued speech: VQAS Level III for cued speech, or the Transliteration Skills Certificate from the Testing, Evaluation and Certification Unit.
  • Oral: a national Oral Transliteration Certificate or a VDDHH-recognized equivalent.

A division or private special education school may not hire a sign language interpreter below VQAS Level II or EIPA 3.0. If you start at that level, you have two years from your hire date to reach the full standard. Cued speech interpreters can start at VQAS Level I and get three years.

Sign language for a student who is not deaf or hard of hearing, written into the IEP for language needs, follows whatever requirements the local division sets.

Taking the VQAS

VDDHH runs the screening in two parts. You need 90 percent on the $30 written assessment, given each month at the Henrico office, before you can take the $100 performance assessment. Performance results can take up to 90 working days, and each level you earn stays valid for three years. Since May 10, 2024, candidates must document that they live, work, or attend an interpreter training program in Virginia.

The state school

The General Assembly set up the Virginia School for the Deaf and the Blind at Staunton as a policy agency in the executive branch, governed by its own Board of Visitors. It serves students from birth through age 21, with a preschool through grade 12 program for children who are deaf, blind, or have sensory impairments with other disabilities. The interpreter rule's hiring limits name local school divisions and private special education schools as the employers.

Pay and related roles

The Bureau of Labor Statistics put the May 2025 median annual wage for Virginia interpreters and translators at $63,030. BLS does not break that state figure out by school setting.

Virginia licenses deaf and hard of hearing teachers through a separate Board of Education preK-12 endorsement.
