At NAE, it takes students three-and-a-half months on average to earn a GED.
-
Nothing replaces face-to-face interaction with a teacher and classmates, but NAE accommodates students who would prefer to work from home by offering online classes and access to websites that normally require a paid subscription.
-
Once you are enrolled, there is no minimum time commitment to be a student at NAE. We will work with you to set realistic and achievable goals, both short-term and long-term; this includes the goal of how many hours per week that you can commit.
