GED Classes Redding California

This is an overview of GED class locations and testing facilities in the greater Redding area. California uses two options for high school equivalency testing, the GED and HiSET exams.

Both the GED and HiSET can be taken online or at an official testing center. To learn more about online testing, check below.

The tests give individuals who never graduated from high school the chance to obtain an equivalent degree.

The HiSET exam is available on paper and on a computer, while the GED is offered exclusively on a computer. Both options measure academic proficiency at a level comparable to that of graduating high schoolers.

The GED exam has four subtests (modules) in

• Language Arts
• Social Studies
• Math
• Science

The subtests may be written separately and in the desired order.

Our website helps you find out if studying online is right for you with our free online GED classes and practice tests. If studying online suits you well, we advise you to go ahead with Onsego GED Prep, an affordable, accredited GED prep course. If you prefer to learn with a teacher, contact one of the sites listed below.

The HiSET exam includes five subtests (separate writing and reading tests) that can be taken separately as well.

GED and HiSET Online

Online GED or HiSET testing can now be done with the help of an online proctor who oversees if everything happens in line with the regulations. Until recently, there was no online HSE testing option. Your personal appearance at a state-certified testing center was needed.

Well, that has now changed with the arrival of the option to take the HiSET and GED in an online, proctored format. Learn more here: proctored online HiSET testing, and for the GED exam, check out the online proctored GED test.
