COMPASS (Computer-Adaptive

This is an untimed test which is taken
on a computer. The purpose of this test is to assess the student's
current academic skills. The test results are used for advising purposes
to help students register for the appropriate level courses. Testing is available at the Commercial Avenue Education Center; no appointments
are necessary. Please see the testing schedules. If you have questions regarding the test, please call
the Assessment Center at (608) 246-5220.

GED/HSED Testing
Receiving your GED/HSED involves attending two in-depth orientation sessions, where students are assessed on their math and reading skills as well as discussing their employability and career assessment. After orientation is complete, students can take the GED/HSED test, which is offered at the Commercial Avenue Education Center.
