In this day and age, you need a Bachelor's degree to get any self-supporting job with a decent sallary... sorry. An associates is pretty much a beefed up high school diploma.

One of my close friends made about $40,000 a year with an associates in civil engineering but he garnered great experience over the years. I'm not sure if this can be overlain to your occupation, but with this economy, a bachelor's will get you $40,000 in 3 years. I say, milk your associate's for what it's worth and get your bachelor's on your company's dime. Take the fundamentals of engineering exam and you'll be in a better position than many others in your field with a bachelor's.
