The Maine Department of Education’s Office of Adult Education launched a campaign June 7 to encourage adult learners to complete the HiSET, Maine’s high school equivalency test.
Those who complete the test are eligible for two years of free community college in Maine, according to a news release from School Administrative District 52 Adult & Community Education in Turner.
As part of the campaign, “It’s time for HiSET” yard signs will be displayed throughout Maine. Local programs will use social media with hashtag #HiSET4ME, mail postcards, and sponsor community events to promote HiSET completion.
Students who live in Maine, graduate high school or receive a HiSET between 2020 and 2023, and enroll in a Maine community college full time, are eligible for two years of free community college.
To learn more, call the adult and community education office at 207-225-1010.
