HIDOE’s Community Schools for Adults are fully accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC). The goal of the GED and HiSET programs is to ensure that graduates who earn a High School Equivalency Credential and/or Hawai‘i Adult Community School Diploma are career ready and prepared for post-secondary education. Both are aligned to national Common Core State Standards and College and Career Readiness Standards.

Atinae Aoaoga Aoao 

O le GED test provides a valid means of measuring the educational achievement of adults who have not graduated high school, and of comparing their academic competence with that of high school graduates. The GED test battery consists of five tests: writing skills, social studies, science, interpreting literature and the arts, and mathematics. Individuals who successfully complete the test battery will receive an official GED transcript and may qualify for the Hawai‘i Adult Community School Diploma. The diploma may provide graduates the opportunity to enter the military service, gain college admission, increase income, increase job qualifications or assist in obtaining work advancement.​
