Our GED® classes prepare students for academic and career success by teaching the skills needed to pass the GED® test and earn a state of Florida high school diploma. Our morning, afternoon and evening classes in ten locations and online make it convenient for adults to continue their education. We accept students at all levels and registration is throughout the year so students can start as soon as they are ready.
ACE GED® classes are A Great Start for a Better Future for hundreds of students each year. Some students are older teens and decide this is the right pathway for them to earn their high school diploma. Other students were unable to finish high school and discover ACE classes are just what they need so they can balance work and family life and still reach their goal of earning a high school diploma.
Our classes are small and students progress at their own pace. We are the largest provider of GED® Prep classes in our region and we are also an official GED® Testing site.
More than half of our graduates immediately continue their education at a college or technical school. Our graduates have gone on to become teachers, builders, engineers, entrepreneurs, nurses, mechanics, and much more, including serving in the military.
Each year we recognize the success of our students with a very special graduation ceremony where family and friends can celebrate their accomplishment.
The goal of our classes is to prepare each student with the knowledge and skills needed to pass the GED® test and earn a Florida high school diploma. Since each student starts with a different set of knowledge and skills and works at their own pace, some students are able to prepare in less than one term and others take several terms or longer.
Our goal is to help students prepare in as little time as possible. During Orientation class each student takes a test that allows our teachers to see what they know and what they need to learn. This enables teachers to develop individualized learning plans to help streamline learning so students get lessons they need and minimize lessons on material they already know.
A major factor in the length of time it takes to successfully prepare for the GED® test is a student’s time and energy they put into the class. Those with higher attendance and who are willing to work at home and stay focused throughout their classes make the fastest progress. Our Orientation teacher will provide tips that will assist students in being more successful in class.
We make it easy to start when you need us and are ready. Students can begin most Tuesdays throughout the school year. (See our calendar.) We are a Leon County school and follow the Leon County Schools calendar. While you can start most weeks the tuition is the same at any time of enrollment so you get the most for your money by beginning early in the term.
Attend Orientation classes. www.aceleon.org/register/
Be early to classes. Space is limited and classes fill up, especially during the first part of the each term.
Any type of government-issued ID is accepted for enrollment. This is a state of Florida requirement to register for adult education GED® classes. Examples of acceptable IDs include a driver’s license, a state ID or passport.
ACE GED® Prep classes prepare students to pass the national GED® test and the Florida Department of Education issues the high school diploma so these organizations keep the transcript and diploma records. Immediately after students pass the GED® test they receive a free electronic diploma and transcript download links at the e-mail associated with the GED® account. Those links are only available for a limited time so the transcript and diploma need to be downloaded as soon as possible.
You can request the transcript at: https://ged.com/life_after_ged/ or the diploma at: http://www.fldoe.org/academics/career-adult-edu/hse/transcript-diploma-requests.stml
All GED® Prep students must attend Orientation unless they are a returning student from the previous semester.
Our goal is to make it as convenient for you to reach your goal as we can. That’s why we offer GED® classes in 2 locations and online. Students will learn more about each location during Orientation and can select a location that is best for them.
