The information and links below pertaining to the GED test may be of
interest.
I wanted
to share with everyone on the list that we officially launched the materials and
web pages for the closeout campaigned titled “Your Future Is Calling” last week
during National Adult Education and Family Literacy Week. I hope that everyone
helps spread the word to the millions of adults with partial or non-passing
subject scores on the GED test, as there are several ways to get involved.

GED Testing
Service’s 2002 Series Closeout Campaign
For 70 years adult educators and
GED Testing Service have provided a bridge to opportunity for adult learners
without a high school diploma. The current version of the GED test will expire
in 2013, along with any incomplete scores. Join the 2002 Series Closeout
Campaign and tell adult learners finish the GED test by the end of
2013.

You have the power to inspire and encourage an adult learner
to finish the GED® test and open doors to college, better jobs, and the respect
he or she deserves. Studies show that 95 percent of U.S. employers accept the
GED® credential for jobs that require a traditional high school diploma. That’s
one very good reason to help adults finish the test now. Join the campaign
today.
Thank you!
