GED Connection
Frequently Asked Questions


Study for the GED Test at Home

Watch, Listen and Study your way directly to a General Education Development (GED) diploma and better opportunities in life…in the comfort of your home.

Florida Community College's GED Connection allows you to use the convenience of television to study for the GED Test. You will be among good company. Comedian Bill Cosby, country singer Waylon Jennings, Olympic star Mary Lou Retton, Wendy's Dave Thomas and movie star Michael J Fox are just a few of the people who dropped out of school and later earned the GED diploma.

Videos, Workbooks, Online Lessons

GED Connection starts at the beginning of each college term. You study at your own pace until you are ready to take the GED Test, which is offered each month at all of our campuses. The GED Connection telecourse is free with a minimum fee for textbooks (about $54/set). You can buy your books online at Follet's website. Students may take the Official GED Practice Test free.


Use the PBS Literacy Website for online practice activities!

Students who do not have access to cable television may view GED Connection on WJCT public television channel 7 every Saturday morning 6:00-7:30 a.m.
