This post includes a full listing of GED prep class locations and test facilities in the Canton region. Ohio offers two options to adults looking to earn a high school equivalency diploma: the HiSET and GED tests.
Both exams can be taken online and at state-certified test centers. For more details about the newly launched GED and HiSET online options, check the bottom of this post.
Testing takes place at a level similar to what HS seniors must know upon graduation. The Adult Education program of Ohio is called ASPIRE.
The GED exam is fully computer-based, while the HiSET can be taken on a computer or on paper.
