Adult Education
Chattahoochee Technical College’s Adult Education program focuses on those who lack necessary skills in reading, writing, math, or English language proficiency as well as on those who have not attained a high school equivalency diploma. The Adult Education program has learning centers in most counties in the college’s service area. All classes are offered free of charge and include a variety of services such as personal academic assessment, individualized instructional plans, integrated education and training classes, and classes in reading, writing, math, and English Literacy. Most learning centers are open days and evenings. A schedule of programs available in each applicable county may be obtained by emailing the Adult Education Office at adulted-ged@chattahoocheetech.edu or visiting the Adult Education section of the college's website.
The ultimate goal of most students in the Adult Education program is to attain a High School Equivalency (HSE) diploma. Chattahoochee Technical College is designated as an official test center for administering the GED or Hi-SET tests. Multiple testing sites are located in the college’s service area. Those who make satisfactory scores on the GED test will receive an HSE diploma from the Technical College System of Georgia and will receive a $500 voucher if they choose to continue their education by enrolling in a HOPE-eligible institution. Those who make satisfactory scores on the Hi-SET test will also receive an HSE diploma from the Technical College System of Georgia; however, the $500.00 voucher is not yet available to those who pass the Hi-SET test.
