The first GED Tests were developed in 1942 to help returning World War II veterans finish their studies and re-enter civilian life. Then, as now, the GED Tests measure the academic skills and knowledge expected of high school graduates in the U.S. or Canada. Recognized throughout North America, the GED program has served as a bridge to education and employment for an estimated 13 million people over its 58 year history. About one in seven high school diplomas issued in the United States each year is based on passing the GED Tests.
