Educational Evaluations
Our Educational Evaluations assess foreign academic credentials, determining U.S. degree equivalence, years completed, and specialization. These evaluations are accepted by USCIS, DOL, licensing boards, and U.S. colleges. We require academic transcripts and diplomas with certified translations.
Course by Course Evaluation
This service provides comprehensive analysis of academic coursework, including grades and credit equivalence. Required by universities for teacher certifications, CPA exams, and professional associations. We analyze original or notarized academic documents with certified translations for precise evaluation.
Professional Work Experience Evaluation
Using USCIS's 'three-for-one' rule, we evaluate work experience substituting for academic study. Completed by PhD professors, these reports determine equivalency to U.S. degrees. We require employer letters, academic documents, and detailed job descriptions for accurate assessment.
Position Evaluation
Our expert evaluators determine if positions qualify as 'Specialty Occupations' requiring bachelor's degrees. The analysis explains job complexity and educational requirements, supporting H-1B visa applications and labor certifications with detailed documentation from employers.
Certified Translations
We provide certified translations in 150+ languages for corporations, law firms, and universities. Our native-speaking translators with field-specific expertise ensure precise terminology. Services include document review, localization, and quality assurance by professional editors.

AETS is very professional. They handled all of my immigration paperwork - educational evaluation and translation. Everything was approved by the USCIS. I work at a large tech company and our company only uses AETS for its employees. I now understand why. I am very impressed by this company.

I had my education evaluated by AETS several years ago, and have used their translation services multiple times since then. They are extremely professional, responsive and courteous. I have recommended AETS to my friends and family. All of my friends also had great experiences with AETS. All of our evaluations and translations were approved by the USCIS.

Very immature!!! If you are in a serious immigration case. I would make sure you get your translations done elsewhere. Do not stand behind their work!!! Do not know if something is wrong or not. Ask you whats wrong so they can fix it. If they do it accurate they wouldn't have to ask you the customer how to fix it. So don't put your loved ones in there hands. No Sir, I am not a scammer and I am a client, but not by choice. My attorney you speak of said you were reliable. Not only is he not a very good lawyer. He was wrong about your company as well. The Lawyers name is Snyder Golkey out of Fargo
