WPA/WPA2 keys are always encrypted - very strongly. Do make sure to use a key that won't be found in a dictionary, because a standard WPA/WPA2 attack involves entering in every word from a dictionary sequentially as a passphrase. Also there is a weak vulnerability in WPA-TKIP (mitigated by use of a long, complex passphrase) that doesn't exist in WPA2-AES.
