Adult Education
ESL
Q: How do I get started in the classes?
A: Call the Continuing Education Office, (402) 437-2700 or (402) 437-2701, to sign up for the ESL Orientation. At the ESL Orientation, the ESL Placement Test will be given to determine which level in our program is best
for the student.
Q: Where do I go for the placement test?
A: The ESL Placement Test is given during the ESL Orientation. We have ESL Orientation at several locations in Lincoln. Please call the Continuing Education office, 437-2700 or 437-2701, to sign up for the ESL Orientation.
GED
Q: Can I take the GED tests online?
A: No, only at centers officially designated to administer GED testing.
Q: How long will it take to get my GED?
A: Every class is a minimum of 60 hours. The individual’s skill level determines how many classes it takes to upgrade their skills. Each student is assessed in an orientation on their basic skill level before entering the classes so that he/she knows exactly what is needed to do to be successful on the GED tests. It will take some students longer to upgrade their skills than others.
