GED Preparation / High School Diploma

One half of the Stand UP program of educational services, GED preparation typically consists of a combination of classes and individual tutoring, although completely individual preparation is available.  Classes are held on one weekday evening, and tutoring on another at the same service site.  The class is ongoing, rotating through the five sections of the GED:

bullet

Reading

bullet

Writing and Grammar

bullet

Social Studies

bullet

Science

bullet

Mathematics

Unlike many government-funded programs, we send students to sit for the exam at the times best for them.  For example, did you know that if you pass one section of the GED, you may never have to take that portion of the exam again?  This means when you are prepared for one section you can just go and pass that section!  You can work through the GED one section at a time, rather than try to prepare for all five sections at once.  If you have a learning disability, you may also qualify for no time limits and other accommodations.  Our individualized instruction and guidance helps you take advantage of these and other little-used options.

A High School completion diploma is also available to those whose learning issues make the GED not an accurate assessment of their abilities.  This program is offered via distance learning in partnership with an accredited Christian high school in Maine.

Our method of instruction is particularly beneficial for those graduating from our Learn to Read program, who may have difficulties in conventional classrooms.
