Event Details

You can get one seat per person, select just ONE option only. If we get many reservations with the same name, only the first one will be valid. The rest will cancel automatically.

The GED is an alternative to a high school diploma.  PPLD offer Adult Basic Education (ABE) and High School Equivalency (HSE) free classes that will help adults for such tests.  We offer preparation for Language Arts, Social Studies, Math and Science tests.  The process requires attending classes, studying, and finally passing all battery exams for the credential sought. 

Orientation is mandatory for the registration and enrollment into our classes. You will take a placement test, fill out enrollment paperwork, and it could take up to three hours (3 hrs.) to complete. We offer classes in-person and virtual (online).

The classes are for adults only and there is no age limit; but if you are 17 years old, we require a parent or guardian to come with you.

Note: PPLD is not a Testing Center, so if you feel ready to take any test, find a location to register for it here:
