Wisconsin's GED/HSED Program


High School Equivalency Diploma (HSED) or GED Certificate


If you have not completed high school and want to seek more education and/or improve your employability, you have some choices that can open the doors to your future.


First, you can take the General Educational Development (GED) tests, pass them, and receive a GED Certificate. Or, better yet, you can go further by taking all of the GED tests and a health, citizenship, employability skills, and career-awareness program - or courses explained below -- and receive a High School Equivalency Diploma (HSED).
