Ged
The term GED® is frequently mistaken as meaning general education degree or general education diploma, the American Council on Education, which owns the GED trademark, coined the term to mean tests for general educational development. The GED measures proficiency in science, mathematics, social studies, reading, and writing. Passing the GED test gives those who did not complete high school, or who do not meet requirements for high school diploma, the opportunity to earn their high school equivalency credential, in the United States, Canada, or internationally.
HiSET
The HiSET® program was developed by Educational Testing Service and Iowa Testing Programs. It demonstrates that a test taker has attained the academic knowledge and proficiency equivalent to those of a high school graduate. Information from the exam helps identify the areas where test takers are career and college ready, as well as areas where they may need additional preparation.
