GED Classes Helena Montana

This article lists all HiSET and GED prep class locations and testing sites in the Helena area. Montana is using both the HiSET and GED exams for the state’s high school equivalency program.

GED® and HiSET testing is available in an online format and at state-approved HiSET test centers.

The exams allow people who never graduated high school to earn an equivalent education degree.

Testing takes place at a level that compares to that of graduating high school students.

The HiSET exam consists of five modular, independent subtests covering the fields of

• English Reading
• English Writing
• Science
• Math
• Social Studies

On the GED test, the reading and writing sections were combined to create one Language Arts subtest.

In the past, the HiSET and GED exams were exclusively administered at official test centers. Online HiSET or GED testing was not possible.

But now, we’ve seen some interesting developments with the introduction of the online HiSET and GED exams. Read more below.

Both exams assess skills and knowledge at a level comparable to that of high school students upon graduation.

Launching the Online HiSET and GED Tests

In the past, there never was an option to take the five HiSET or four GED modules online. Recently, however, we’ve witnessed a great development with the launch of an online option, the ‘HiSET-At-Home’ exam, and the OP (Online Proctored( GED test.

When you take the online GED or HiSET exam, a proctor supports you in the process and checks whether everything occurs correctly. To learn all about this development, visit this page: Launching the online HiSET test. For information about the online GED test, <- check here.
