FREE HIGH SCHOOL EQUIVALENCY and ACADEMIC SKILLS COURSES OFFERED at EXETER ADULT EDUCATION

Classes designed for adults that never completed high school to help improve reading, writing, or math skills and prepare for HiSET,

HiSET® (High School EquivalencyTest) has replaced the GED in NH and many other states. Like the GED, it provides an opportunity to study for and earn a New Hampshire high school equivalency certificate.

Adults who did not complete high school or who need to improve reading, writing, or math skills for personal or professional growth are encouraged to come back to school. Because school may not have been a positive experience the first time, returning to school may sound uncomfortable. Yet many adults from ages 18 to 75 have taken the courageous step to get their high school equivalency certificate or to improve their spelling, reading, and math.

Some people come to school because they need a high school equivalency or other certification to get a job or to prepare for job training or college. Others want to be able to help their own children but need to improve their own skills first. Whatever the reason, it’s not too late, and Exeter Adult Education staff can help each step of the way.
