We know that getting used to the new "normal" hasn't been easy. Lingering post-pandemic changes and new challenges with getting students credentialed can affect your program and hamper student achievements.

On the bright side, with challenges come opportunities.

We at GED Testing Service have served our CA Adult Education partners and adult learners for over 70 years, and we've upped our game considerably in the past several years. We have new tools, improved systems and connections with employers to help AE programs and students be prepared for today's workforce.

Now's the perfect time to explore how the GED program can help make the learning experience better than ever. We'd love to hear from you!
