GED Classes in 2012
12.29.2011
Goodwill of San Antonio is committed to a highly skilled workforce in 2012. One of the first steps to changing your life in the new year is your Diploma or GED! What if we told you that Goodwill offers FREE and flexible GED preparation classes for the community?
In the fall of 2011, Goodwill launched its own GED Preparation program headed up by Beatrice Fox, a 16 year education veteran. The program is offered Monday through Thursday at our downtown Commerce location and Fridays at our Bitters location. Class times range from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. However, if we determine that you only need certain subject areas of study, we will recommend you only attend certain hours. Therefore, it is very important that you call for a pre-interview so we may determine what you need to focus on.
"Don't assume it's too late or too hard to restart your education," Beatrice says. "Classes are going on all day, you simply need to call and we will figure out what you need to study. This way, we uniquely prepare all people for GED testing."
Call Beatrice at (210) 924-8581.
