New program aims for faster GED diplomas

FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) — A new state program can help some Kentucky students get their GED diplomas faster.

Kentucky’s adult education centers now offer GED Express in all 120 counties. The program works with students only on issues where they need the most help through a combination of instruction on academics, technology and test-taking skills.

To qualify, students must be enrolled in a local adult education program. A list of programs is available on the Kentucky Adult Education web site, http://www.kyvae.org/countycontacts.aspx .
