CTC to offer free GED practice tests

Media release: Chattahoochee Technical College's Adult Education Learning Centers will offer a free GED practice test as part of Georgia's Adult Literacy Week, Sept. 10-14. The practice test, which contains material similar to the GED test, provides a good indicator of a student's readiness to take the GED test. Staff will be on hand at the centers to explain what's needed to sign up for the free GED preparation classes for those who may need to improve math or writing skills. They will also be available to explain how to register for the GED test which is now taken on computer.

"We're actively campaigning to help people throughout Georgia understand that we can help them prepare for the GED test and, with a little effort, they can earn a GED credential," said Beverly Smith, the TCSG assistant commissioner for adult education. "After that, we'll assist with their transition from GED diploma to college degree or into a better job. I encourage every adult learner in Georgia to make plans now to visit their local adult education center and take advantage of a free GED practice test session during the week of September 10 through 14."

Spots are limited for the free practice test, so those interested should contact the local adult education center at:
