Education / General Education Diploma
Adult Basic Education and

Adult Basic Education students review and

entrance exams, or to meet personal goals GED
students review skills and learn test-taking
strategies to pass the GED examination and
receive a high school equivalency certificate.
Students who are at least 16 years old, are not
enrolled in a high school, and who are U.S.
citizens, immigrants, permanent residents, or
refugees are eligible for these classes.
• Morning classes meet daily, 10 hours/week
• Tuesday/Thursday evening classes meet 5 hours/week
• Optional computer lab for additional practice
• Students enter the program approximately once a month
Since the skills necessary for the GED are
usually the same skills ABE students are
seeking, they often study the same subjects but
the teacher will keep each student's individual
needs in mind and tailor the assignments
accordingly. Students progress at their own
pace. Some students are able to master the
skills they need in a short amount of time and
others may take several quarters to accomplish
their goals.
