Introducing Online GED and HiSET Tests

In earlier days, if you wanted to earn your high school equivalency (HSE) credential, you had to report, in person, to one of Ohio’s state-designated testing facilities. But now, we have seen some great new developments as both the GED and HiSET exams have introduced online testing as well.

To read more about the new online proctored HiSET test, visit ‘Online HiSET testing welcomed,’ and for more GED online testing, check out: ‘Introducing the online GED test.’
