GED testing resumes at the Allegheny County Jail after a two year pandemic pause
Five people incarcerated at the Allegheny County Jail have received GED certificates since April when testing resumed for the first time since the COVID-19 pandemic began. Before the shutdown, instructors from the state-run Allegheny Intermediate Unit taught classes in preparation for the test that equates to a high school diploma. Live instruction was paused for two years but students in the program received work packets weekly.
