The General Educational Development (GED) test is an adult education service that enables a student to earn a certificate of High School Equivalency issued by the Texas Education Agency. In other words, a GED certifies that the taker has attained high school-level academic skills

We offer the GED Test Preparation Assessment: Cost $50.00 a one time fee: this assessment is for a person who is preparing to take the GED but wants to find out their weakness and prepare for the test based on the assessment; this is for a students who qualifies to take the test in a week or less.

We offer a 2 Week retest Prep: This course meets four days a week for two weeks; online or in person; the cost is $100.00. This is a one on one instructor lead course; as well as small group; class size 10 or less. This course is for a person with the skill to pass the test;  but needs remediation in one or two sections of test to achieve an overall test score required for the GED. This program is optimal for a person who failed the GED or is weak in one or more sections of the test.

 This is a class that prepares qualified youth to take the GED.

GED review courses are available in English and Spanish. Currently, there are five different subtest students must take to earn their GED: This class is self paced; but you must work closely with an instructor. You may work online; in class or a combination. You must come to class to take exit test. This course if free to students who qualify; if you do not qualify this course can be as low as $30.00 a week; plus books and supplies. The price of the course depends on the student learning  level  and student academic needs. This course is governed by TEA guidelines; read the guidelines that governs your situation or need.
