Have you been thinking about returning to school to obtain your high school diploma? Whether you want to qualify for a higher-paying job, get a promotion, continue your education, or simply fulfill a personal goal—Essential Education may be the platform for you!

Take online, self-paced courses that give you personalized feedback on your areas of strength and need for improvement in your choice of the GED Academy™ or HiSet Academy™. These interactive courses offer practice tests in English and Spanish, a custom-made study plan, and a virtual tutor, as you complete each subject area. In addition, Languages and Learning Center staff will provide individual check-ins and lead monthly peer coaching sessions. You can take these courses on a computer, tablet, or smartphone; either in the comfort of your own home or on the go.  

Hear what current students are saying about the course:

"The Essential Education HiSet Academy™ course was very beneficial to me as I prepared to take the HiSet® exam. I found the quick reference resources and handy formulas to be very helpful. The course made it easy to take notes, track my learning, and make progress. My commitment to studying on a regular basis using the HiSet Academy course is one of the main reasons I was able to achieve my high school equivalency credential."

"I found the Essential Education HiSet Academy™ course very interactive and engaging.  The eight-question quizzes really transformed how I processed information, ultimately making it easier for me to learn more quickly. Even the cartoonish tutorial videos were interesting, fun, and educational. Without this course it is unlikely that I would have passed the HiSet® exam on the first attempt. I highly recommend the Essential Education learning tool to anyone looking for creative ways to prepare for the HiSet® or GED® exams."

"The Essential Education platform is a great tool that really helped me to learn and prepare for the HiSet® exam. The course modules were entertaining and I actually felt like I was accomplishing something. I was able to plan study time around my busy schedule as a husband, father, and business owner. It was nice to see my efforts pay off when I passed the exam in the Spring of 2021."
