On June 4, QCC hosted the HiSET (High School Equivalency Test) graduation, which celebrated this year’s graduates who completed the HiSET and earned their high school equivalency. Director of Testing, Laura Tino said a total of 42 people passed the HiSET in the last year. Those who passed the test were invited to attend a graduation ceremony held in the Harrington Learning Center.

Testing is held at QCC’s Center for Workforce Development and Continuing Education on 25 Federal Street, Worcester and is generally held twice a month, with the exceptions of January or August, and once in September.

HiSET was first introduced in Massachusetts in 2014, as an alternative to the traditional GED (General Education Development) high school equivalency test. 

“We will also be offering the new GED test in the near future, also at 25 Federal Street. Test-takers will have a choice of GED or HiSET at our QCC location,” said Ms. Tino.
