Who should enroll in the GED Online class?
The purpose of Durham Tech’s GED Online program is to provide an alternative to classroom instruction for persons with unique accessibility needs that prevent them from attending onsite classes, such as, lack of childcare and/or transportation, illness, job scheduling conflicts and other reasons. Successful learning with GED Online depends greatly on students’ consistent efforts and willingness to take personal responsibility for their learning. Students able to attend classes at onsite centers are highly encouraged to do so. Applicants must be 18 years of age. Minors (16-17 years of age) must be withdrawn from school for at least six months before being admitted into the GED/Adult High School/ABE Programs. In addition, minors must submit an application, which must be approved by the Dean of Basic Skills before being admitted. Forms may be obtained from the Basic Skills front office.
