The State of Illinois has now adopted two other High School Equivalency (HSE) Diplomas in addition to the GED. The three tests are the GED, HiSet and TASC.
If you think of the GED test like a photocopier, most people will say it's a Xerox machine when in fact it is a photocopier and the brand is Xerox. The HSE is the same. GED is just a name brand. The DACC Testing & Academic Services Center offers the computer-based GED test and the paper-based HiSet test. GED/HiSet classes are free in the Adult Education program but you have to pay to take either of the tests. The GED is $120 and has four subjects: Math, Science, Social Studies and Language Arts. The HiSet costs $90 and has five subjects: Math, Science, Social Studies, Language Arts Reading, and Language Arts Writing.
Adult Education classes at DACC prepare students to take either of the tests. Again, classes are free. To register for classes you have to come to the Adult Education office at DACC in Prairie Hall.
No matter which test a student takes they will still get the same diploma from the State.
