Equivalency Test Preparation

Equivalency Certificate

 

Earning a High School Equivalency Certificate in California is possible by passing either the GED or HiSET exams.

 

At Golden Oak Adult School, we offer comprehensive test preparation for both exams in a flexible hybrid format. This includes in-person classroom instruction and access to online preparation tools. Our classes are taught in a modular format, allowing you to complete the instruction for each subject before taking the corresponding exam.

 

We offer test preparation in both English and Spanish.
