GED Test

Coffeyville Adult Education is able to conduct the Official Practice Test, which is a prerequisite for the Official GED Test.  Coffeyville Adult Education does not offer the Official GED Test within their facility.  However, the program does collaborate with area testing centers such as Independence Community College and Labette County Community College in order to test.  Transportation to testing can be provided for our adult learners.
