Introducing Online Proctored GED and HiSET Tests
In earlier days, the GED and HiSET exams were never available in online formats. The tests had to be taken at one of Pennsylvania’s official, state-approved HSE (High School Equivalency) test centers. But, as we recently saw the launch of proctored GED online and HiSET tests, that has all changed.
If you want more detailed information about this new HiSET online testing option, check out the following article: ‘Introducing the online HiSET exam’ and to get informed about the recently introduced online proctored GED testing option, go to this page: ‘Welcoming the online proctored GED test.‘
