[NOBE-L] GED Information

[Pauline Smith]

Good Afternoon,

I hope you got some responses to your queries about GED test and study material accessibility. I have been wondering about the same things, dating back to when I was a full-time Braille Braille instructor. If you have received any useful information, could you please post it so that others can utilize the resources?

Pauline

Subject: [NOBE-L] GED Information

Hello Everyone!

I work at an adult training center, and I have about five students who are needing their GED. I am hoping that someone knows some great free and accessible resources to help students study.
I also wanted to see if any of you have had experiences of dealing with the GED and their accessibility department. I have a student who tried to take their social studies test at home and requested accommodations and was approved. They were told that the test would be accessible with Fusion, as a side note all the practice tests were accessible, but when they started the test the first question had an image. The Testing was done at home, and it was being monitored through a 3rd party online who also saw that the issue of the image. At that time, they tried to restart the test, but it was still not accessible. The student ended up getting a failure on the test, and it was being investigated. It has been over 2 months now an no resolution has been made. The student has reached out multiple times, and the responses have been its under review. Currently the student is at a standstill and can't take other sections of the test. If anyone has any ideas on how to get this ball rolling once again I welcome them.

Thank you for any resources and suggestions.
