The Texas Workforce Commission is offering aid to Texans seeking to obtain their Texas Certificate of High School Equivalency, improve their marketability in the workforce, and increase their earning potential. The high school equivalency subsidy program provides free subsidies for Texans at least 21 years of age to take a GED or HiSET exam. While existing adult education and literacy programs support adult learners to prepare to take a high school equivalency test, they do not cover the costs of taking a test. This program does that.
