The GED® is the most affordable option for homeschoolers to complete a Grade 12 Equivalent Qualification, making it possible for learners to study further after secondary school. The GED qualification is achieved after writing the GED exams.

Passing the GED provides a learner with certification that the learner has the same academic skill as any United States or Canadian High School Graduate.
