GED Preparation
About the Program
This program is designed for adult learners who did not complete a traditional high school diploma and wish to earn the high school equivalency credential known as the GED. At the Center, the program covers instruction in the four subject areas tested on the GED: language/reading, writing, science, mathematics, and social studies.
The Center also serves as a registered testing site for the GED exam.
Why it matters:
Earning a GED equivalency opens doors for further education, training programs, and improved employment opportunities.
The preparation helps build foundational skills in academic areas and supports learners in reaching the proficiency level required to pass the exam.
At the Centers, learners receive not just test prep but support services (computer lab access, student success center, etc.) to help them succeed.
