GED Preparation Classes
CCAC's Bridge to College and Career Pathways Program provides high school equivalency test preparation classes to adults who want to strengthen their academic skills and develop the critical thinking and reasoning skills required to pass the 2014 GED® or HiSET® test. The program is only offered at CCAC's Allegheny Campus on the North Shore. All classes are free to students. Program funding is provided through the Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE).
