How do I register for an online GED class?

If you wish to take an online GED class, you must:

1. meet the general eligibility requirements
2. follow the registration process
3. meet reading and math assessment score requirements

You need access to a computer, Internet, email, and a word processing program such as Microsoft Word or Works.

What does the course work involve?

You can work from home and take the classes online. You must dedicate at least five hours per week to your online GED class.

Your instructor will monitor your progress and can respond to questions by email. Your instructor will schedule meetings periodically to assess progress, receive additional assignments, take official practice tests, or schedule the GED tests.

GED tests can not be taken online. Tests must be taken at an approved Iowa GED test center such as the Learning Center at the Hawkeye Metro Center.
