HSE Prep - High School Equivalency (HiSET/GED)

Adult Basic and Secondary Education Classes/HSE Prep

RCP’s Adult Basic and Secondary Education Program helps students prepare for the High School Equivalency (HSE) exam. Our program focuses on the content of the HiSET exam, but students in Massachusetts can also choose to take the GED.

Our program has two levels of instruction: Pre-High School Equivalency (grade levels 4-8.9) and HSE Preparation (grade levels 9-12+). All incoming students are tested to help determine the correct class level; testing is also done three times a year to ensure students are enrolled in the appropriate level. Our mission is to help you succeed in your personal and professional goals. Our experienced, supportive teachers will help students learn the basics and eventually master high school skills.

Our program has so much to offer, including:

  • Personal attention in our small, interactive classes.

  • Experienced teachers who are kind, patient, and encouraging.

  • An in-house academic advisor who will offer support by helping students solve both academic and non-academic problems.

  • A dedicated team of staff and volunteers to coach you, guide you, and cheer you on!

Classes in reading, writing, math, science, and social studies—the basics through HiSET prep – will help students pass the test. At RCP, we go further by offering:

  • Digital Literacy—students have access to Chromebooks during school and work on skills in Northstar Digital Literacy

  • Educational and career advising—individual advising, classroom presentations, help with resume-writing, help completing job applications, referrals to MassHire and other training and employment opportunities

  • Class speakers who come in to share their experience and expertise in various topics

  • On-site official HiSET testing!

After passing the HiSET, students can continue to receive guidance and support. We offer connections to transition-to-college programs, on-the-job training programs, certificate programs, help to complete program applications, and much more.

Our students have built better lives for themselves and their families. Some have found better jobs, received promotions, or have gone on to college and started new careers!
