HIGH SCHOOL EQUIVALENCY

HiSET® and GED® Exams give adult learners the best opportunity to demonstrate their skills and knowledge to earn a high school equivalency certificate as an alternative to a high school diploma.  Students passing all tests of either exam receive a state-issued California High School  Equivalency Certificate, which meets the diploma requirements of most employers, trade schools and colleges.

Equivalency Preparation

Prepare to pass the High School Equivalency HiSET®. Our new curriculum is specifically designed for the HiSET® test. We have had great success with our students passing their tests. Initial assessments and periodic practice tests help students monitor their progress and readiness for HiSET® Exams. Preparation workbooks are available for sale. Students who attend classes regularly and demonstrate their readiness to pass the HiSET® exam can apply for scholarship vouchers. Students need to be fluent in English or Advanced ESL level. Morning & Evening Classes

Teacher-Led Instruction

Students attend a class that meets on a regular basis. Each class session is led by the teacher who provides instruction and engaging activities that help students learn and practice concepts and applications. These classes offer learners the opportunity to interact with peers and the teacher on a regular basis. Classes are generally two or four days a week.

Self-Paced Computer-Assisted Learning

Students attend regularly scheduled classes and utilize on-line computer-assisted curriculum with teacher assistance and tutoring. Students proceed at their own pace but have the advantage of immediate feedback and assistance, which helps students make regular progress.
