This article includes a full listing of GED®) prep sites and testing facilities in the Alexandria, Virginia area. Virginia is using the GED exam for its HSE (high school equivalency) testing program.
GED testing can be done online and at certified Virginia GED test facilities.
HSE testing gives people who left high school before graduation the chance to obtain an equivalent diploma.
The HSE test assesses knowledge at a level comparable to what high school students are expected to master upon graduation.
There are four GED subtests in literacy, social studies, math, and science that don’t need to be dealt with in one take.
In the past, there never was an online GED testing option. You needed to show up at an official Virginia GED testing center and sit for the tests in person.
This has now changed, though, as we’ve witnessed the launch of an online proctored GED test. Learn more at the bottom of this page.

Launching the online GED test
Until recently, taking the four GED modules over the internet has never been an option. To get hold of your Virginia GED degree, your personal appearance at one of Virginia’s official GED testing centers was required.
This has now changed with the introduction of an online proctored way to deal with the GED exam. A proctor will monitor online if your testing happens in line with the rules. To learn more about this interesting development, check out Introducing the online proctored GED test.
