Canadian Adult Education Credential Preparation Program
Day and evening classes available​
​
The CAEC certificate is widely accepted as high school ​equivalency. We accept anyone into this program who wants to pass the GED exam. You are free to work at your own pace and can attend classes full-time, part-time, or in the evening at select locations until you are ready to write the exam.
​
The CAEC covers 5 major subjects:​
Math, Science, Social Studies, Reading, and Writing.​
​
The in-class program operates on a 52 week contract year-round from September to August. Intake to the class is ongoing. Schedules for learners are flexible to accommodate full- or part-time attendance. There is a common intake assessment of learners so that learners can start at their own skill level and work at their own pace. Training is free and class size is small to allow for one-on-one instruction.
Intake Assessment Process
Intake assessment is done with a teacher who continues to provide personalized instruction to the learner throughout the duration of the program, and takes between 2-4 hours to complete. It consists of two components: Language Arts and Math. The Language Arts component involves reading comprehension exercise - such as reading passages with comprehension questions- and word lists of increasing difficulty. The Math component involves worksheets focused on the use of addition, multiplication, etc. to the use of more complicated formulas. Overall, the assessment gauges the needs of individual learners so that they can receive the instruction that is best for them.

CAEC Preparation
CAEC (Canadian Adult Education Credential) preparation is offered at all Adult Learning Centres. CAEC tests are a group of five subject tests (math, science, social studies, reading, and writing) which, when passed, certifies that the taker has achieved high school academic equivalency. The CAEC is usually accepted for jobs or educational programs that require a high school diploma.
