As we all know, not everyone is able to make it through high school. For some people, it was a life change that made them unable to attend. Others, it may have been a personal choice to drop out.
However, your education doesn't have to end where you left high school. Make this the year you work towards earning your GED. Why a GED? Almost all employers and post-secondary schools recognize the GED as a replacement to a high school diploma.
Then, how can this help change your own life? Having a GED can lead towards getting employment, advancing at your current place of employment, or give you a springboard towards a 2 or 4 year college. For some, it can lead towards having a secure income, a way to improve their family life, and the ability to be a part of their own children's education.
Adult Options In Education offers free GED prep classes at all three of our locations in Hopkins, Minnetonka, and St. Louis Park. There is a free GED Orientation session on January 14 at the St. Louis Park High School where you can learn about the changes to the new 2014 GED, register for classes, and find a schedule that works for you. Call us at 952-988-5343 to reserve a spot. If you're unable to attend, you can still call and set an appointment for a registration session at the AOIE office.
Take a moment to do something positive for yourself, take time to earn your GED!
