The Tennessee Department of Labor and Workforce Development announced the HiSet product from Educational Testing Service will become the only high school equivalency test given in the state.
Currently adult learners in Tennessee have the option to choose between the HiSet test and the GED Testing Service product.
New test takers will no longer be able to sign up for the GED test. As of Friday HiSet will be the sole provider of high school equivalency testing in Tennessee.
There are currently 132 students, in 95 counties, who have taken at least one module of the GED test, but have not completed it. Those students will continue to have access to the remaining modules of the GED test through June 30, 2016.
Effective July 1, 2016, HiSet will be the only test available to students in Tennessee who wish to obtain their high school equivalency diploma.
