Hawaiʻi Adult Community School Diploma

Under the Hawaiʻi State Department of Education, adult learners who have not graduated with a high school diploma can obtain a High School Equivalency Credential and/or Hawai'i Adult Community School Diploma (i.e., Community School for Adults (CSA) competency-based diploma).

The CSAs offer two recognized High School Equivalency Tests: the General Educational Development (GED) and High School Equivalency Test (HiSET). Both tests are aligned with national Common Core State Standards (CCSS) and College and Career Readiness Standards (CCRS). Additionally, students who completed the Hawaiʻi National Guard Youth Challenge Academyʻs HiSET pathway will receive the High School Equivalency Diploma. More information can be found on the Hawaiʻi Public Schools Adult Education website.
