Student Success Stories

GED Program (ages 18-24) is facilitated by a certified instructor that uses face-to-face, Google Classroom, EssentialEd, Zoom, Podcasts and other means of technology to engage students in an innovative learning experience.  The GED Test is made up of 4 subjects, divided into separate exams.  The GED/HSE (High School Equivalency) Test consists of four subjects: Mathematical Reasoning (115 min), Reasoning through Language Arts (150 min), Social Studies (70 min) and Science (90 min).  

The GED Ready Practice Test is available in each subject area to determine your readiness to take the test and determine the academic skills that require additional support.  The Instructor schedules a GED subject test once the student receives a “green light” on the subject area practice test.

If eligible, all young adult programs are completely FREE and are earn-as-you-learn.

Cynthia Olisakwe, GED & Year Round Youth at SYLA: BIG shoutout to Cynthia for starting and completing her GED track with SER Metro-Detroit during a pandemic. Cynthia plans to get her CNA license and work toward nursing. Her twin sister, Joan, completed her GED in record time as well. Joan plans to enlist to serve in the US Navy.
