GED Booklet
GED is an international testing program for adults who have been unable to complete high school. We recognize that adults acquire knowledge, skills, and concepts through working, training, travelling, reading, and other informal learning. GED Tests measure the level of “educational maturity”, gained through experience, which is often equal to, or above, the level of a high school graduate.
GED Tests are available in Canada, the United States, and in some foreign countries.
