Throughout the summer months, Hinds Community College will hold classes for people who want to finish their General Education Development (GED) high-school equivalency certificate before the current test expires at the end of 2013.
The official GED test will change in 2014 and will be more difficult and more expensive, Hinds CC said in a release. The test will also change from a pencil-and-paper test to a computer-based test.
Open registration dates through Hinds Community College’s Adult Basic Education/GED program follow. All times are 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. each day.
